I have several of these sweaters in different colors; like them very much. Comfortable in cool weather, both inside and out. Sizes run different; some of mine are small, some medium. Have not had problem with shedding like others have had.
I absolutely love this sweater! My husband purchased this for me for Christmas last year, with the crew neck pull-over that matches. It is one of my favorite outfits. The sweater and the pull-over wash so easily, and come out perfect each time. I always get compliments on this sweater. Loving it!!
Being a truly "petite" size (0 or 2), it is a joy to find at last something at LLBean that actually fits well and doesn't look like a hand-me-down from a larger cousin. This sweater is unusually versatile -- it can look casual or slightly dressy, and although the knit design is intentionally porous, the sweater itself is dutifully warm. Other reviews have mentioned scratchiness and even pilling under the arms, but I have not found this to be the case, and I couldn't be happier with my navy-blue cardigan. I just wish this sweater came in a greater variety of useful colors.
