This shawl kept me warm all winter long. When traveling it is especially helpful on planes. I receive many compliments and asked where I got it. I pass on Novica.
I have several alpaca sweaters I've purchased on the Novica site. All have been unique, well made and exceptionally beautiful! It is difficult to go shopping for this kind of item when the "best" can be ordered right at home from some of the best knitters imaginable!
