colorful robes

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.”

This sweater sizzles in bright colors in a playful pattern of vertical wavy stripes. Designed by Alfredo Falcon of Peru, the boatneck sweater is knit with a blended yarn of soft baby alpaca, the fine fleece from the first shearing of the season, and durable acrylic in fuchsia, amethyst, strawberry, scarlet, and burgundy. The colorful waves continue across the long, wide sleeves, which drape beautifully down each side of the sweater.
