Every day in Lima, Peru, skilled artisans and craftsmen bring their beautiful, hand-woven alpaca knitwear to M.L. Kessler’s marketplace, where this designer is a shining beacon of fair employment and fair trade in an economy in which talented workers are easily exploited. Not only are Kessler’s employees paid well above the national average, they also receive a percentage of the sales price for every product they produce. Working in environmentally safe buildings with clean bathrooms, running water and pleasant lounge facilities, these highly skilled workers weave centuries of tradition into every alpaca wool creation. When you wear an alpaca wool sweater or cape from M.L. Kessler, you are doing more than wrapping yourself in the luxury of one of the finest natural fibers known to man.

This is a thinner sweater But the Alpaca wool keeps me warm. I usually wear size 8-10. Got a large and it fits just right. Runs small but in proportion. Just size up one size unless you want form fitting. Very attractive. Just purchased the other color.

The olive colored scarf has a look and feel very close to a GI issue scarf from WWII. Yet, it is brand new and made of alpaca wool, making it warmer and hypo-alergenic.

Lovely soft open weave knit - not as warm as you may expect. Only real criticism is that the band at the bottom gives it a 'granddad' shape.

Comments:
The yarn of this light alpaca pullover is relatively thin, allowing me to layer the sweater with a turtleneck pullover to achieve a classic look with slacks or jeans. In particular, I like the wide rib knit look of the body of the sweater and the zigzag design at the bottom of the sweater and at the cuffs. Best of all, the sweater "breathes" wonderfully well, indoors or out, so I'm never too warm or too chilly while wearing it. The only downside with the sweater is that the sleeves are too long -- so I just roll up the cuffs a little more than usual.
