Elegant and beautiful alpaca ruana
Love this beige or tan alpaca ruana, so elegant and beautiful. The fabric is gorgeous with also crochet details on the edges. Perfect layer and thickness. This color goes with everything since it's a plain color that goes well with any other color. It's perfect for spring too in this light tone. I highly recommend it and also this artisan. It's great quality. And it looks so fashionable, yet very practical. I have neck and nerve issues to my arms and hands so I love ruanas, opened in the middle, over ponchos. I hope that she make it in other colors too. And she continues making beautiful ruanas like this one, in other styles. I wanted another beige one but in a blend material with ruffled edges, because I already has one that I love in black and white, but it was sold out. I picked this one then, and it was a great choice too. This one seems thicker with more alpaca, so warmer, so it can be worn when it's cold in the winter. I hope that this artisan bring back the blend ones again.

SO CUTE and well made.
I have never ordered these items or anything from NOVICA before so I crossed my fingers and ordered 4 for holiday gifts. They arrived quickly and are darling! A friend who was with me when I opened the package immediately wanted one of the sets. Very nice especially for the price. Also got a lovely thank you card with them from the artist. I have already placed another order for several more. Thank you NOVICA and Ashish!!
Absolutely gorgeous
I have been eyeing this sweater for months. Finally, I was able to save $20 off, so placed my order. I am a fan of Ana Fernandez's sweaters, and this one did not disappoint. The sweater fits me perfectly (size S). I can wear it buttoned down or not. The colors make it possible to wear with lots of different color slacks or jeans, although it is just a tad dressy for the latter. The pattern is woven in; at first I thought it was embroidered on, but I assure you it is woven as part of the garment. It truly is better in person than in the photo. And it is sooo soft. I absolutely love this item: the style, the overall pattern on the front, cuffs, and back, as well as its versatility. Ana has a fan in me. I can't wait to see what she designs next.
