cape shawl

Decorated with checked patterns of taupe, saffron, maroon, and indigo, this poncho from Peru is woven from a sumptuously soft alpaca blend. Nestor Yana creates this bright cape, which features a shawl collar with a zip-up front.

Peruvian artisan Cristina Villalobos designs a pearl grey shawl that combines the luxurious softness and warmth of alpaca with the resilience of acrylic and wool fibers. Knit in an eyelet pattern interspersed with three bands of cable pattern, the shawl has a lovely relaxed drape, and is wide enough to be worn either as a wrap or across the shoulders like a cape.
