"Handmade Beauty !!"
The poncho is EXACTLY as pictured, and solid/ not too thin not too think. Perfect length (does not hit the knee lenght - more hip length). The pattern that runs on the side is gorgeous that it highlights in subtle way the beautiful weaving. Love the knots at the end too. Do not think twice about getting this. Many coworkers wanted to know where I got it. Keep it going Petrona !
