ML Kessler Alpaca Shawl (For Women)

thumbs up

Our niece loved it we ordered another for my wife.

I was surprised how lightweight this was. It is a simple style, and the bottom looks more delicate than the photo depicts. I will wear it when a sweater would be called for. I am pleased, just wish it was actually a true white color.

I bought this because I have my arm in a sling for a while, but I am so delighted with it, I'll wear it often. Really a lovely little cape, very feminine and pretty as well as practical.

Have not worn this yet, so I don't know if it will shed, but it is certainly soft and warm! It came to me really creased, however, and was difficult to steam out. One crease is still there, and I'm hoping it will hang out eventually. I love the white color, even though it's probably not the most practical, and the crocheted trim is kind of retro and fun. I don't remember the sizing on this, but it is not "one size fits all". The shoulders are fitted and are a little tight on me which makes the buttons across the chest buckle unless I pull it to the back of my shoulders. If you have really broad shoulders or a bigger bust than mine (38C), it may not fit. All in all, a beautiful, warm cape that's not your average wrap.
