I visited Peru last year and made the mistake of not purchasing one of these hats. Thank heaven for Novica and their support for artisans! I finally got the hat I wished I had gotten when in Peru.
There's nothing like alpaca, even better than cashmere. And when the hat is beautifully made and you have absolute confidence in the seller, it's a cinch to be a great purchase--which it was. I have so much respect for the artisans who keep the ancient crafts alive. Thank you!
This was a gift for a first time mom's nursery. It went so well and was so soft! She used it in the rocking chair every night and is now a reminder of such sweet memories.
