This is a beautiful, flattering, and unique piece. I also have the same sweater in red and black and wear that one very frequently. I love 100% alpaca and this is a beautiful and distinctive design. Very warm for the Colorado Rockies where I live.
I gave this sweater to my sister for her birthday and she loves it. It is a beautiful soft gray. My sister says it is light weight and warm. It should be perfect for early fall in Maine. It has a delicate pattern which makes it versatile as causal wear up to dining out.
