"So soft!"
Very comfortable, nice cable pattern on one side. A little thin, so not the best for really cold days, but I would buy them again.

Beautiful, thin, good quality. Might be a bit tight if you tend to have puffy arms.

"Truly perfect"
I don t use the word perfect very often, nor lightly. But it applies here! This poncho is the perfect shade of indigo, with a bit of heathering for interest. The knit is stretchy yet retains its shape. It is light weight yet warm and feels like a gentle hug. I have already worn it almost every day since it came, and I live in an area experiencing hot temperatures right now! But it is perfect for the air-conditioned areas. I will take it with me traveling, for sure. Could not be happier.!
