"Positively Perfect!"

I love this scarf. It is even better than expected. I have traveled in the Andes and purchased some cherished items. I can now add this to my collection. The blue is a lovely mixture of teal and sky. So soft and just the right length. I am so pleased with this purchase.

"Beautiful color and wool"

This shawl is as shown in listing. Gorgeous teal color with some varied hues making it interesting and lovely. The wool is textured, which also adds character to the shawl. Obviously created with care, and delivered in good timing. Only reason for one star off is that the edges don t appear secure. There is stitching to help hold the weave, but the lengthwise edges are raw, so if anything catches on the weave, it will undoubtedly pull oast the light stitching meant to hold the lengthwise yarns.I will treasure this shawl, and feel the need to handle it a bit more cautiously than my lifestyle mode.Thank you to Isidoro for making this beautiful wrap.

"Gift this coming Christmas"

I bought this for a teenage boy. It is so soft and warm, yet “cool”! I think he will absolutely love it, especially on those cold New England mornings while waiting for the school bus.
