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.
I bought the hat as a gift for a friend. He is wearing it almost daily and absolutely loves it for the comfortable feel of the alpaca fibers as well as the warmth. The neutral colors and reversible design make it a versatile wardrobe piece. Well crafted!
