Details

Alfredo Falcon of Peru designs this striped acrylic kimono-style ruana with bold colors and a mixture of geometric motifs. A touch of baby alpaca, the fine fleece from the season's first shearing, adds to the ruana's warmth and feel. Coconut shell buttons define a sleeve when buttoned. Lightweight, the ruana makes a wonderful layering piece.

Alfredo Falcon learned the craft of weaving from his parents, who learned from their parents before them. He says, "We have been a family devoted to the world of textiles for generations. I use modern colors but I remain true to Incan and colonial motifs."

Beautiful color, warm and soft”

I love this hat. I have gloves that I love so decided to order the hat to match. It is warmer than the wool hat I have been wearing. My only complaint is that the hat is long and I have to fold the bottom edge up twice, which makes it very thick around my head. Keeps my ears warm but awkward to put on and adjust to the right fit.

very cold wetaher
