"Love the look! Love the feel!"
I cant wait for the cold weather to come in! The finish and precision in the craftsmanship is outstanding. Nicely covering but not bulky and not too long (I am 55 and it falls right above my knees)! The material is very soft and lighter than wool. The color is a rich brown. Goes with jeans and boots but also dress pants and skirts in all shades of brown, grey, black or even dark green. Worst every penny!

"Easy to wear and soft to touch cloak"
This garment came in perfect condition.Every stitch is as perfect as the one before it. It feels soft and luxurious. I am so proud to wear it to school as a teacher or go out to dinner in up town. So many compliments and I love telling that it is hand made from Peru. One added surprise was the photo included of the alpacas walking around Lake Titicaca.

"Perfect for autumn in Northern Minnesota"
This cloak is the perfect addition for outdoor wear when the weather begins to chill. It is light to wear, but keeps you warm! It is the best addition to my fall and spring wardrobe. I love the look of this cloak, very feminine and perfect for going to the office or out on the town. It adds a bit of class to the wearer and draws compliments from those that see me wearing it. Thank you for such fine workmanship, truly a work of art in weaving!

"Truly perfect"
I don t use the word perfect very often, nor lightly. But it applies here! This poncho is the perfect shade of indigo, with a bit of heathering for interest. The knit is stretchy yet retains its shape. It is light weight yet warm and feels like a gentle hug. I have already worn it almost every day since it came, and I live in an area experiencing hot temperatures right now! But it is perfect for the air-conditioned areas. I will take it with me traveling, for sure. Could not be happier.!

"Very soft"
Overall very happy, the fabric is very soft and the craftsmanship seems to be of high quality. Would have liked the sleeves to be a little more fitting but I am looking forward to wearing it often this winter. Gracias Alfredo!
