Beautiful sweater. My only complaint is the obvious one--it is so beautiful that you can only wear it now and again because everyone who has seen it recognizes it.
I bought this for my mother, and it is even more beautiful in person, thanks to the incredibly soft baby alpaca. Red is slightly rusty, just a little and it is more ivory on the pattern than white. My mother is 5ā9 a size 10, the large fits her exactly.
The alpaca softness, colors and stitching of this sweater have made this my absolute favorite -- and I have A LOT of sweaters! I wore it recently on a trip and got so many compliments. The picture just does not do it justice!
