"Pointsettias and Pinwheels"
This beautiful black crocheted shawl is just amazing! The crochet work makes it look like elegant lace from Spain! I will use this shawl over my summer and fall dresses to keep me warm and looking elegant. I own a cream shawl made by Maria and have received a number of complements on it. Friends want to know where I got it and I tell them enthusiastically about Maria's work and about Novica. I am so delighted to be the owner of two beautiful shawls made by Maria! Gracias!

"Lovely Shawl"
The pattern, shape and color of this shawl are beautiful, and great to wear over dresses. It reminds me of old shawls made in Spain, so I love this style. Its 100% alpaca so its a bit itchy on my very delicate skins, so Im using it with dresses with sleeves preferably. I chose black but she also has beautiful ones in cream color. I wish that they were also offered in 100 % cotton to wear in the summer because I get cold with AC. Thank You for such beautiful craftsmanship.

"It fit and is so cute and warm!"
This hat will fit most heads wonderfully well (some knit hats are just too snug on my head), is very well made, and looks cute on for a warm hat.
Best Uses
- when you want your head to stay warm and look good, too!

"Thick and warm!"
This hat is plush, thick, ample in fit, and warm. It has become my go-to hat in winter. I am so grateful that Maria makes hats that the cold winds dont blow through. It is attractive, too. If this were available in more colors, I would definitely buy them!
