Review on Oversized Cardigan Sweater For Women - Open Front, Batwing Long Sleeve, Chunky Knit, Slouchy, Shawl Collar by Mary Brown

This is a beautiful sweater.the pictures that accompany the product description don't do it justice!I love sweaters and have lots of them; I prefer natural fibers, so most of them are heavy cotton or wool and are worn during cold weather for my commute to & from work and not so much indoors.Well, I'm mostly at home now, thanks to the pandemic, and I realized that I don't really have many sweaters that are light-weight and suitable for wearing around the house but still look nice when needed. I was pleasantly surprised when this sweater arrived -- it looks and feels far more expensive than it is. The fabric is 45% viscose, 35% nylon and 20% polyester and it feels substantial and drapes beautifully. The product descriptions calls this a chunky sweater, but I usually consider that to mean a nubbly texture or a large-gauge knit. The front and shawl collar of this sweater feature a smooth knit, and the back and sleeves are textured (tiny little checks). The sleeves have a wide ribbing and there is a similar but narrower ribbing around the hem. The sweater does have an oversized fit that is roomy but not too big or baggy and it holds its shape. The sleeves are slightly too long for me (a common issue) and the overall length of the sweater is also fairly long which I prefer (it hits me about mid-way between hip and knee). I think this sweater works equally well with jeans or with dressier clothing. The shawl collar is well proportioned and flattering. ordered the khaki, which is a lovely shade that will go with just about anything in my closet. The sweater is well-made with nice, even seams and attention to detail. The quality seems top-notch and at $24.88, the price is more than reasonable. I've recently ordered several sweaters in this price range and this one definitely stands out from the rest. It looks and feels great and it is warm and cozy as well.
