I wore this cozy sweater a handful of times, but I think I need a larger size. My loss is your gain! Made in Italy of Merino wool, it’s very soft and cozy. The pockets are great and I like that this sweater is designed to hit at the top of the hips. Laundered only once by hand using wool specific detergent. I did find the wool shrunk up a bit after washing. If you’re better with wool than I am you may be able to get it to loosen. Questions? Just ask! I’m a top 10% seller and I ship quickly using recycled packaging. Smoke free home.
