light shawl

At the center of this cotton blend poncho from Peru, a stripe reveals subtle geometric patterns in indigo and aqua. Alfredo Falcon designs the poncho, which is knit from a luxurious acrylic and cotton blend in solid cerise.

Alfredo Falcon of Peru designs this striped acrylic kimono-style ruana with bold colors and a mixture of geometric motifs. A touch of baby alpaca, the fine fleece from the season's first shearing, adds to the ruana's warmth and feel. Coconut shell buttons define a sleeve when buttoned. Lightweight, the ruana makes a wonderful layering piece.

Alfredo Falcon learned the craft of weaving from his parents, who learned from their parents before them. He says, “We have been a family devoted to the world of textiles for generations. I use modern colors but I remain true to Incan and colonial motifs.”

Layering is a refined art you will love the minute you try it with such exquisite pieces as this versatile red shawl crafted from 100% wool. Designed by Arnab Roy in India, the light shawl has neatly trimmed fringes on the ends and is woven on a power loom with a pattern of vertical running stitches made from ivory acrylic yarn at the middle and the sides.
