"Beautiful sweater"
The sweater is lovely, soft, and fits well. My only surprise is it s not as thick as I had hoped and therefore not as warm on a cold New England winter day as I had hoped. Great for Fall and days above freezing!

"Beautiful alpaca from Ricardo y Cesar"
Lighter than my other alpaca sweater but highly functional in Denver, open or zipped to the top. Photo perfectly displays colors. A major compliment magnet!

"Soft, stylish, lightweight warmth"
This is a beautifully knitted cardigan, stylish and lightweight. My only concern is that the zipper does not seem to be very robust and rather small for an item like this. So far, so good, but a heavier duty zipper would have both been more sturdy but could have added an additional style element. Apart from that minor issue, I love the design and feel of the super soft alpaca wool.

"Disappointed"
This sweater is soft and looks nice in photos. It is always a risk to buy online without seeing in person/trying on. I was hoping this would be a high quality product that would last a long time. Unfortunately, the weave of this sweater is very loose. At first it fit great, and as my spouse wore it, it grew and grew and stretched out and got longer and longer, to the point where it is comically huge, sleeves dangling past his hands and everything. I am trying to shrink it by washing and drying it and it is not getting better. I would not recommend this product.

"A gorgeous, colorful, wonderfully soft sweater!"
My husband LOVES this sweater! It looks even better on him, in person, than it does in the catalog! It is extremely soft and beautifully made.
