SWEATER CARE: Alpaca and wool fibers are naturally antimicrobial, helping to resist odors and bacteria, making them ideal for long-term use with minimal washing.
When needed, we recommend to hand wash your piece in cool water with a mild detergent and letting it soak. Use your hands to submerge and avoid wringing it. Rinse thoroughly, press out excess water, and lay it flat to dry, reshaping it as needed. Store folded in a cool, dry place and avoid hangers to prevent stretching.
Every Minga sweater is hand knit using natural fibers - alpaca, baby alpaca, wool, so it keeps you warm without ever feeling itchy. These fibers breathe, letting extra heat out and holding the cozy in. It's the sweater you grab on cold mornings, pack for every trip and will still love years from now.

My absolute favorite sweater! I borrowed a friend's and could hardly give it up, so I had to get my own! The fit is perfect and it is so soft and cozy. I wear it almost every day! Love love love!! Would give it 10 stars if I could :)
I was obsessed with this sweater..until I washed it and it shrunk so severely, I can’t wear it anymore. So devastated as I only got it three weeks ago.
I never want to take this sweater off. It’s the perfect brown - not too dark and not too light, and it’s SO soft and cozy. I’m 5’7 with broad shoulders and long arms and the M/L is perfect
I’d give 6 stars if I could! This sweater is unbelievably soft and cozy. The fit is so flattering, I love that it’s relaxed/oversized yet cropped. I’m 5’5 with a slim upper body (XS in tops) and got the S/M in Desert Taupe. Recently I’ve been switching to more natural/sustainable materials for clothing and this sweater definitely solidifies that decision! I’ll definitely be wearing this all winter long!!!
Minga's sweaters are incredible. They are so soft and warm and you can tell they have been made with a lot of love. I went with the M/L for a slight oversized look and it's perfect. The olive green color is stunning and I've already received so many compliments!
Love this sweater so much! I’m 9 months pregnant currently and even so it fits great and is soooo soft and cozy- and I can’t wait to continue to wear it as my body returns to its more normal size! The perfect shape sweater in my opinion I wish I had one in every color.
Soooo cozy! I am a knitter myself and this is knit beautifully and so lightweight and soft. I’m 35 weeks pregnant and just rolling up the front over my belly for the time being. I chose the S/M size. I foresee wearing this daily up to having baby and postpartum. If you’re worried about itchy wool, this is for you. Softest knit I have ever purchased (even compared to other alpaca ones).
I am actually obsessed with this sweater. I have worn it 3 days in a row since receiving it in the mail and I am in LOVE! It is worth the investment. It's the softest sweater I've ever owned - every time I hug someone when wearing it, they're like OMG SO COZY!! The fit is the perfect amount of slouchy. I feel like an effortless bad b*tch every time I wear it. Now I want it in every color.
Thank you Made by Minga for making my new favorite piece of clothing :')
I love my sweater so much! It is such a stunning piece and is super cozy. The kelp green is gorgeous and I would love to get more sweaters in the future when I can treat myself again.
I got the m/l- I am normally a size small in tops (5’6 & 125lbs) but I am currently 8 months pregnant. I wanted a sweater that could fit me while and after pregnant. I compared the size chart to myself and felt the measurements will be nice even after my pregnancy as I like an oversized fit in my sweaters anyways. Thank you so much!
This sweater is exactly what I was looking for! It's so light and warm and feels like a cozy cloud. I was concerned about it being itchy but it isn't at all!
The XS/S is pretty relaxed and roomy - I usually wear a S and could fit a blouse comfortably underneath it. The green color is really rich and special as well.
Highly recommend!
Staple fall & winter piece! I live in this sweater, the baby alpaca is much softer than others I’ve purchased. I need to find a way to get one in every color! I’m in love!
I love my sweater! The green is such a beautiful color and it fits perfectly. I wore it to an xmas party and my friend bought herself one the next day!
Obsessed with this soft green sweater (both in color and touch). Took a swing on it during Black Friday and will be shopping Minga again next sweater season!
I love the Alissa sweater so much that I am gifting them to my mom and sister for Christmas this year. This is easily my most complimented sweater and is my tried and true wardrobe staple. I feel even better wearing it knowing that I'm supporting a small, woman-owned business and artisans who take such pride in their craft. I couldn't recommend this sweater more!
New favorite sweater! Its so soft and comfortable. The colors are beautiful. Its expertly made, with a perfect fit and crop. I got mine a little oversized and tuck it into a pair of high-waisted jeans, or just wear as is and feel so cozy!
I love love love my new Minga Sweater. I purchased one for my daughter and one for myself. Shhh…. Don’t tell but I’ve worn it almost everyday! It is so warm and soft, it is so easy to wrap up in it! Can’t wait to purchase more!
It is a cute sweater but the sleeves are really long for me. I do have shorter arms but just noting this for anyone who has short arms you will have to cuff up the sleeve which doesn’t really go with the look of the sweater.
I got this sweater last year at an event and wanted to come and leave a review because it’s my favorite. The soft fiber and easy going fit is perfect. I got a small (I am 5,6’ and size 8 pants) since it’s a bit oversized, it fits great! I’ll be ordering more colors for sure!
