Description

** This sweater is for presell. It will ship the week of November 11th **

We have been dreaming of the perfect Craftspring Holiday Sweater for years, and we thought no better inspiration than New York City! We designed these ultra soft 100% baby Alpaca sweaters to be super comfy and relaxed, but also have beautiful details such as beaded and embroidered accents and colors that bring joy. 

If you look closely you can see some of our favorite icons of NYC, including bagels, taxi cabs, and of course pigeons! After each sweater is knit, beading is added by hand to some of the motifs for a subtle embellishment. 

The Peruvian artisan group that makes these sweaters also has an incredible foundation that trains and employs women in rural villages throughout Peru to knit. These women created our matching hand knit mini sweater ornaments from the same luxuriously soft baby alpaca yarns. 

  • Made from sustainably harvested baby alpaca wool.
  • This cardigan style sweater is machine knit by wonderfully talented artisans in Peru. They use locally sourced baby alpaca yarns to knit in an intricate ladderback jacquard technique.
  • Fairly traded and made with love in Peru.
  • Care Instructions: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry.
