Stephanie I hesitated to purchase this because of "one size fits most" sizing. The poncho is so stunning that I decided to take the plunge. The package arrived beautifully wrapped, and I saw that the poncho was perfect. I am 5' 10", and the poncho falls well below my lower hip area until about 5 inches above my knee. Love the poncho styling with the unique soft collar that drapes over the neckline. I own lots of wraps, and the design of this piece appealed to me since it won't fall off my shoulders because of side stitched sleeve openings. Fabric is soft and nice weight (alpaca/acrylic/wool). The Inca Claret design is a modern twist on traditional Peruvian textile motifs. The center torso is black, and the red/black graphic design runs down either side. Front and back are identical. High quality workmanship. Easy to wear casual/dressy and perfect for travel. My new "go to" wrap!

A Andrea N. I could not be happier with this winter weight scarf/shawl - the pattern is beautiful (on both sides), and it's long, soft, and not bulky. I have had a hard time in the past few years finding long winter scarves that are not bulky (I usually only find those 'blanket' scarves that are unwieldy and bunch up by your face), but this one is perfect. Can't wait to wear it!

Gail I ordered this piece partly because I was intrigued by a poncho with sleeves! I thought it might be warmer than typical open-sided ponchos and I wasn't disappointed. The warm, rich colors and added sleeves made it perfect to wear for a special Thanksgiving dinner! I love the bold ethnic design and will enjoy it for years to come!

This is so gorgeous and warm and stylish! I love indigenous patterns and artisan work, and this is my new favorite topper for cool weather (I live in LA). I wore it to an art event with jeans and plan to wear it to dressy events as well. I love that it is reversible also, so you can emphasize either the black tones or the brown tones.

This is a beautifully designed garment, wonderful combination of sweater and poncho very creative. I am quite small and it fits and drapes beautifully. The colors are true to the picture. It also looks great with lots of different styles of jewelry. A real find. I highly recommend it!”

Time, practice and patience are evident in this work of art. Yes, art. I would truly have to start my life over to achieve the expertise in the creation of this poncho. The color, pattern and symmetry drew me in and I had to add this to my wardrobe.

Only problem is that it was too small for my daughter. It was a gift from me to her and I didn’t realize she would need a much larger size than usual. Next time I’ll order a man’s wrap.

..The picture itself, does not do the shawl justice. It is a remarkably breath taking song and dance of interwoven beauty. Soft to the touch, elegant around the shoulders.....one of the most wonderous advantages that we women have, is to enjoy the good fortune of wearing a garment like this!!

This is the best hat I've every bought my husband. He's bald and needs a soft warm hat much of the time. This is such an attractive hat, much more than functional. It's reversible, and that makes it all the better. I was very impressed by the workmanship as well.
