“Alpaca Ruana Lush Dark Brown”

These are wondeful ruanas. Easily worn in the office, and in spring/autumn as outerwear. The color here is more like a medium/flecked/mottled or cocoa brown, like the lightest parts seen in the photograph.

“Birthday Present”

I bought this shawl for my sisters birthday and it was so beautiful. She was pleasantly surprised with the pattern, softness, and craftsmanship. It is a piece that exudes style and sophistication.
