Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. Don't tumble dry, twist, or wring. Cool iron if needed. Store folded in a cool, dry space with airflow; avoid hanging.

Women's Alpaca Wool Sweater: 300 Lightweight

The benefits

Why Alpaca wins

Alpacas en los Andes peruanos

Andes-adapted for changing temperatures

Alpacas evolved where days run warm and nights turn cold. Their semi-hollow fibers trap insulating air, helping you stay comfortable as the temperature changes.

Softness starts in the fiber

Alpaca’s smoother scales give the fabric a soft feel against your skin. Comfort comes from the fiber’s structure.

Wear more, wash less

Alpaca wool naturally resists odor. Air your layer between wears, then wash it when it needs cleaning. Less time doing laundry. More time outside.

Single origin

Peru, start to finish.

Arms of Andes is a family company with roots in the Peruvian Andes. “Arms” brings together the initials of four siblings. That connection to Peru shapes what we make and where we make it.

From fiber sourcing and yarn spinning to knitting and sewing, production stays in Peru. One country, with the people and knowledge behind your gear close together.

new favorite

I live in SW Michigan. winters are really really cold. This sweater and the fabric is the most comfortable piece of clothing I own. Warm but not overly warm. This was a first purchase of alpaca, though I own much merino [which i love], alpaca is my new favorite fabric. Nothing else feels like alpaca and I love arms of andes because of the color options. looking forward to more colors and style options.!

Simply in Love

I’m so glad I got two of these sweaters. The fit is flattering and perfect for everyday wear. I’ve also paired them with skirts for church. I’m truly a freeze baby and I have been LIVING in my Arms of Andes pieces this Minnesota winter. These pieces have done an amazing job regulating my body temperature in the cold. Thank you for making me a happier and warmer person through your clothing line! Can’t wait to continue adding to my collection.

I love this sweater

I wear it ALL the time. It's so soft and warm and cozy. It feels like a secret luxury I'm indulging in when I wear it. I think it's too warm for most strenuous activity, but it's wonderful for everyday wear on a cold day.

My new favorite shirt

This is my third purchase from this company since I discovered them three months ago. The shirt is considered lightweight, but it is very warm. I typically feel cold all winter long, and this shirt has kept me so comfortable. I am able to wear the shirt many times before it needs to be laundered. It is important to me that this product is 100% natural fiber and does not contain plastic. I am so happy with my purchase.

Substantial for "lightweight"

A series of warehouse errors (sent the wrong color three times) left me despairing of ever getting what I ordered. I finally got it, and it's lovely. Worth the wait.

I am already an alpaca lover. This mid layer doesn't disappoint. It's soft and warm. Well made and fits as I'd expect.

Wrong color

I've ordered red, green was delivered. I dont like going through the return and waiting process so i kept it, good thing I like how the long sleeves fit.

Mostly good

I like it generally but the neck hole is quite small. I wish it were a little bigger. Great quality and feel though.

Hi Nimai,
Thanks so much for your honest feedback!
We’re glad you’re enjoying the quality and feel that means a lot!. Your input helps us improve!

True Love

This shirt exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s the perfect weight and keeps me warm on the slopes. It was a bit itchy at first but after a few wears and a careful washing, not so anymore. This will my go-to when hiking shoulder season. I ordered size L (145 lbs, 5’7”) and it fits perfectly.

Hi Mary,
We're thrilled to hear that your shirt exceeded expectations and is keeping you warm on the slopes! 😊 It's great to know that it became even more comfortable after a few wears. Wishing you many amazing hikes and adventures ahead!

Great Sweater

Bought this for my wife and she couldn’t be happier with it. Originally bought x-small, which is the size she wears in a lot of outdoor clothing. It fit tighter than she liked so got a small. Armed of Andes made the exchange easy. She is looking forward to getting more alpaca clothing from this company.

Hi Wesley,

So happy to hear she loves it! Glad we could help with the exchange, we are always working hard on improving our service. Hope she enjoys her alpaca gear for many adventures to come!

Really just the best

Every Arms of Andes garment I've bought so far (think its up to seven pieces at this point) is better than anything else in its category I have ever owned.
I love the weight of the fabric, the comfort of the cut, and the layering warmth each offers to my winter wardrobe. They look attractive -- whether sweater, t-shirt, hoodie -- and do the job I need them to do. I only wish I had made more purchases earlier in the season when more size, color and cut variety was available.

Hi there,

Wow, thank you for your amazing feedback! We're thrilled to hear that our garments have become a staple in your winter wardrobe. It’s great to know you appreciate the quality, comfort, and versatility of each piece. We’ll keep working to bring you even more options in the future—hopefully, you can grab your favorites earlier next season!

More akin to a long sleeve tee than a sweater, but a great piece for casual wear

Although arms of Andes calls this a “sweater,” it’s more like a long sleeve tee, in that you wouldn’t wear it over a shirt. (The photo on the website is quite accurate.). That being said, it’s a great piece. In comparison to, say, the alpaca sweaters made by the now-defunct Appalachian Gear Company, which were also wonderful, the fabric of this piece is almost buttery smooth, rather than “wooly.” So it pairs perfectly with either jeans or nice pants for casual wear. It’s super comfortable and quite warm. And it’s a perfect layer under a fleece or a jacket. It’s beautifully made. It would be great to see this in some bold and bright colors—maybe a red?
