Elegant and beautiful alpaca ruana
Love this beige or tan alpaca ruana, so elegant and beautiful. The fabric is gorgeous with also crochet details on the edges. Perfect layer and thickness. This color goes with everything since it's a plain color that goes well with any other color. It's perfect for spring too in this light tone. I highly recommend it and also this artisan. It's great quality. And it looks so fashionable, yet very practical. I have neck and nerve issues to my arms and hands so I love ruanas, opened in the middle, over ponchos. I hope that she make it in other colors too. And she continues making beautiful ruanas like this one, in other styles. I wanted another beige one but in a blend material with ruffled edges, because I already has one that I love in black and white, but it was sold out. I picked this one then, and it was a great choice too. This one seems thicker with more alpaca, so warmer, so it can be worn when it's cold in the winter. I hope that this artisan bring back the blend ones again.

Like wearing a Klimt painting
I forget how many of these 100 percent cotton robes I have obtained for myself and for gifts in recent years. The fabric patterns are all gorgeous, but I am partial to this cool, dreamy, sea-glass colored blue green design. It reminds me of a Gustav Klimt painting. I sew; garment construction is excellent. I wash in cold water then hang on a hanger to dry naturally. I have not had any of these robes bleed or fade. None have even worn out; though I live in them around my home. But I have quite a few so I rotate them! :)
Love this!
Showed more pink on my monitor, but they said shades of brown and that's what it is. Cool pink-tinted cinnamon blending to a rich, cool chocolate, darker than I expected but actually more stunning because of it! My only problem is nothing to wear it with (which I knew when I bought it). I plan on making a dress just so I have something to show this off... The artist did such a lovely job! Thank you!!!
