Natural Ivory Braided Detail Ivory Alpaca Blend Poncho from Peru

This elegant poncho is the perfect piece for transitional weather. It's knitted in an alpaca blend in ivory and combines a cable knit pattern across the chest with vertical panels around the body for added structure. A turtleneck design means it will feel extra cozy.

Martin Lazarte first learned to work knitting machines while working at a textile factory. He moved on to work on his own, combining the technical knowledge he acquired with his own designs. Martin now serves in a local nonprofit that teaches other artisans the same skills he once learned as a young man to help them access better job opportunities.
