“High-dwelling companions of the puffy white clouds” is how a 1946 National Geographic article describes the Andean alpaca, a domesticated animal that has provided wool to Quechua Indians for thousands of years. Alpaca wool is warm, lightweight, and easily sheds rain and snow, making it an ideal fiber for the windswept Andes. This alpaca-blend cardigan features patterns inspired by the embroidered hems of Peruvian women’s polleras (ankle-length skirts) and llicllas (woven shawls and carrying cloths). Single-button closure. Fine-gauge alpaca blend.
Made in Peru. 40% alpaca, 30% sheep's-wool, 30% acrylic. Women’s sizes S (4–6), M (8–10), L (12–14), XL (16).
Hand-wash or dry clean.
