Ponchos of the Century

With winter creeping up on us, the temptation to wrap ourselves in our favourite woollen blanket and head out to face the day is only growing stronger. Thankfully, we can enjoy the warmth and ease of said blankets with a much more fashionable (and socially acceptable) twist courtesy of the lovely ladies at a.m. assembly. Their Ponchos of the Century line, handmade from recycled wool blankets, will keep you toasty warm while fighting the winter grey with bright bursts of checked colour, candy squares and other patchwork treats. On the days you might want to take your poncho off (a rarity, we suspect), they also offer sweet woollen pom pom scarves to warm up any outfit.
