The Peruvian Sleek Shawl Collar Alpaca Topper

This alpaca topper hails from Peru, where the wool is hand-shorn once a year from the indigenous camelid of the Andes. Warmer than cashmere and every bit as soft, alpaca is one of the most sought-after natural fibers in the world for its durability, softness, and silky touch. And with an incredibly fine fiber, the resulting sweater possesses a smoother, less-itchy finish than coarser sheep or goat wool. Knitted by skilled craftsmen in Lima, the alpaca is blended with 30% acrylic to create a topper that is the perfect complement to leggings, jeans, or dresses, with a contemporary open shawl collar and two deep front pockets. Stylish yet long-wearing, the garment resists stretching and wrinkling. Hand wash or dry clean. Ivory, Tan, or Charcoal. One size fits most.
