This is a light-weight top that can be worn indoors or out. The soft alpaca feels great to wear. I am 6 ft tall and around 165 lbs. I initially ordered a large which was much too big. I exchanged for a medium which fits fine. I should mention I had no trouble with the exchange process. I was provided with a pre-paid label and sent the sweater back to a US address. I received the new replacement in no time from Peru.
This alpaca cardigan is great for between season wear and is made warmer if you wear a long-sleeved item under it in the dead of winter. I love the fringed bottom and the fabulous colors that work for both warm and cool color types. Beautiful and well done piece. Fits well with my indigenous clothing collection.
