Baby Alpaca-Wool Cropped Cardigan
We adore this classic yet casual alpaca sweater. With a flattering cropped design, it's made for your everyday. The rib pattern, minimal button front, and cozy light feel make it a wardrobe staple. Alpaca wool is long lasting and resistant to pilling, and doesn't have the scratchiness of some other wools.
