Rated 5 out of 5 by HoustonCajun Perfect travel sweater--warm, light, wrinkle-free
This sweater is soft, warm, lightweight,and well made. It is short enough to wear under a blazer or a jacket. It can be rolled or crumbled and stuffed into any container. It emerges without a wrinkle. The wild violet color is muted and works well with blouses or turtlenecks in white, black, grey, dark navy, and many shades of pink. The sweater is so lightweight that I forget that I am wearing it. The itch factor is low. After it arrived, I unpacked it and started wearing it immediately during a beginning-of-June cool snap in a mid-western state. Great sweater.

Rated 2 out of 5 by rcmoores Not normal LLBean quality
I do not think this sweater is up to LLBeans normal high quality standards. I have worn it about 4 times, and had to sew 4 buttons back on! Also, it pills a lot and now looks old and worn out after just a few wears. It is a pretty color and very warm, though.

I saw this sweater on a table near the checkout line (I had gone in to get a turletneck sweater and fleece vest for my mom). I wasn't looking for anything for myself. The color caught my eye and I really liked the texture. This is a roomy, casual sweater that's soft, warm, and comfortable to wear. What did I wear before I got this sweater?! Blue is the new neutral!

Rated 4 out of 5 by jerseygirl62 Nice and Soft
I got this to replace another sweater that had seen better days. This is comfortable and goes well with my gray skirt. Very soft and washes nicely.

Rated 5 out of 5 by oliviajane Great sweater
I ordered this in the cranberry shade and in purple. I'm very pleased. It's soft, warm (but not too warm...perfect for fall and winter) and really nice looking. I'm a scarf woman and have already dressed up the purple sweater with one of my (many!) scarves. It looked great and received compliments. So...it can go either way: casual or a bit dressier.

I purchased this sweater for an 81 year old woman who likes things to be cozy, classy, colorful and conversation pieces. She was thrilled with the color, feel and fit of the sweater. Once she tried it on, she did not take it off until bedtime!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Editor Second time's the charm
My first delivery was disappointing because of a fairly large flaw on the front. Second time around, though, I received a sweater that is a beautiful color (I bought the green), feels so soft and light, and has small buttons that give it a bit dressier appearance than my other sweaters. The texture is fun and the result is not bulky in the least. A great buy.

Rated 4 out of 5 by CosmicBlue Soft Knit Cardigan
I like this sweater because it has very soft fabric. It is not a heavy knit and should be comfortable wore alone early in the season or layered when the weather is colder. I had a difficulty time deciding on the color, but love the nice soft gray with matching buttons. It will easily coordinate with the other colors in my wardrobe. Since I'm at the top end of the medium on the size chart (38.5"), I wasn't sure if I should size up to large. I'm happy with the medium fit.

Rated 4 out of 5 by peregrina Comfy but more shaping would be good
This sweater is soft, warm, and very comfortable. The colors are also nice (I got the grey and the green). The two things that bring it down a star are: 1) it poufs out a bit above the ribbing in a not terribly flattering way and 2) the sleeves are too long (for me) and a bit wide. It would be nice if it came in petite.
