i am particular about hats and wear them well. i find many berets to be skimpy...too tight and bereft of the flow a proper amount of fabric gives. and this fabric is so airy and light...not a heavy insulating hat. but the alpaca is so fine that it weaves a wispy warmth about your locks... delicate and so soft! the nature motif is evident and so pleasing. i get a lot of compliments when i don this truly azure topper!
The sweater is well made and fits as expected. An elbow wore out on the first one after it was worn many times, so another one was purchased. We were very happy to see that it was still available.
