This is a gorgeous long cardigan. However, I had to return it because of the way the collar is made. I cant stand any article of clothing to touch my neck every since I had surgery for thyroid cancer. Unfortunately, this sweater has a high neck, which I was not able to tolerate. So, I had to return it.

My favorite part of this sweater is the nature of the fabric. It is made in a way that feels like it is part of you and not obstructing you. It moves and stretches with your body in a way that you dont feel it on most of the time. It is low profile and not bulky making it a good base layer option if needed. The XL fit was perfect for me (I am 61, 200 lbs). The garment is cut well and allows for movement of the arms and bending at the elbows. If I bend my elbow, the cuff does not slide up at all. If I raise my arms completely over my head, the sweater barely raises off my waist. This is one of my favorite garments that I have ever had the pleasure of owning. I really wish these were cheaper so that I could buy a few more (one for the office, one for home, one for travel etc). Right now, I am using mine at the office and it would would fine in any office setting (casual with jeans, business casual, and wearing a tie). If you are on the fence, just buy it.

I ordered this sweater in hopes it fit well and that it would go with my jeans and a few other slacks. The sweater fits perfectly, buttoned and open, looks great with my wardrobe, and is absolutely soft and cuddly. The middle horizontal band falls correctly at my wasteline and the sleeves were just the right length. One other admirable quality is that when on, the patterns and bands line up really well so I wont constantly be adjusting it. The mini-scallop detail at the hem is sweet. I didnt even notice it in the photo. The overall color is a deep blue, but in certain light, it can look a bit purple. I assure you it is blue. I love this sweater and highly recommend it for those who wear a size small, especially. Thats my true size (4). The fabric s a little stretchy. I cant wait to wear it for friends see. In fact, I like it so much, I sat down before writing this review and ordered another in a different color. Congratulations to the artist for getting everything just right.
