Stylish”

Sumptuously soft, snuggly and stylish. A lovely, classic colour combination. The gloves have a slim profile so easy to move in whilst wearing and to undertake necessary tasks whilst keeping hands warm and cosy. Alfredo is certainly a masterful knitter and colorist! Would like to buy more items in the future - maybe a matching scarf? How wonderful it is to wear a piece of handmade Peruvian craftsmanship whilst striding through the streets of London. Thank you to all Novica does to make this possible!
