Hotouch Lightweight Crochet Cardigan for Women - Long Sleeve Open Front Knit Oversized Sweater | Perfect for Spring Layering, Beach Cover-Up & Casual Outfits

It's not too often that I'm THIS impressed with an Amazon clothing purchase ; with that being said , if you want a beautiful, yet comfy accessory for your wardrobe , look no further! The yarn isn't fuzzy , its kinda like satiny . So its not a sweater to keep you warm in ; more so an addition to your wardrobe . Its plenty warm enough for those spring shopping outings and for cooler summer nights over a dress , but DEFINATELY NOT A WARM COZY FALL/WINTER SWEATER . But this is perfect for a layered look with tanks , blouses and more and I even take the front corners and tie a low knot and this looks so cute !I ordered an XL in the Pink color and I'm pretty sure I would've been safe with a large ; seems to run large and if thats what you like as I do, so it has that flowy ...almost shawl-like appearance wearing it off the shoulder, then you'll appreciate it's oversized fit .Typically order XL in tops (depending on company), and I'm 5'2", a 46-C and 173 Ibs.The ONLY thing I'd change with this sweater is, the length of the sleeves . They're very long even for someone with long arms . And since the yarn is slippery they'll unroll easily and I have to watch that.Other than that , I wore it shopping with my fiance who just LOVED how springy the color was ( very vibrant pink/ salmon color ) and how it seemed to brighten me up!! The pattern is beautiful too ...... just be careful wearing bracelets/ rings that may catch threads, as it'll easily get snagged and pull the thread but if pulled , like I did with a bracelet, because the yarn is slippery it'll go back inplace with a gentle tug .But I'm telling you , I'm very picky and I'm sure you'll enjoy this purchase!! ♥** UPDATE :WASHING ...... I finally bit the bullet being unsure about effects of washing and drying it would be and had asked a question regarding effects of putting in the dryer . The manufacturer suggests laying flat to dry . But note, I had stated this was very long in sleeves and very big all over . I dont like air-drying certain things as sometimes they just seem to not fit as well with a stretched-out appearance etc. Well I took a gamble and popped it in the dryer on the delicate cycle /less dry setting and it came out spectacular !!! It actually shortend up the sleeves just enough so it's a much better length without so much material hanging around wrists ,( but I have shorter arms , so take that into concideration . ) Length on bottom however, stayed the same ! ? No shrinkage with the open work design and feel confidant now to dry . I'd definately order another !!! ♥
