What customers say:
Customers overwhelmingly praise this cable sweater for its timeless design, exceptional comfort, and high-quality construction. The classic cable pattern and flattering color options like yellow, peach, sage green, and blue are celebrated as versatile year-round staples. Reviewers consistently highlight the soft, buttery cotton texture and ideal weight for layering, noting the fit runs true to size and washes well. Many compare it favorably to pieces owned for years, emphasizing durability and craftsmanship. A few mention the sweater runs large with a boxy silhouette that may not flatter all body types, though most still acknowledge the quality and plan to reorder in smaller sizes. Overall, customers consider it a worthwhile investment.

Very Large

Size Purchased: Medium
Fig was a nice new color, but the sweater was too large and too long - much larger than my older Double L cable crewnecks. It fit more like a loose tunic. I returned it.

This sweater is a classic beauty. It is 100% cotton and it feels so soft on my skin. I bought the brown and the color is exactly what I had been looking for.

A wide fit for the tummy and hips was not
what I was looking for, but otherwise I am delighted with the sweater. I am 5 and 3 3/4 and petite XL is a good fit for me. The seaboard

It's a classic sweater in a great color. One hundred percent cotton is a plus. Only wish you could dry it in the dryer instead of air drying.

Mixed feelings.
The color and material are beautiful. Unfortunately, the fit of the sweater is too big.

I was looking for a replacement for my previous LLBean cable sweater —I thought it was the same but it is much longer than the first one. I wanted it to wear with short jackets but

Could be better
Weight: 100-110 lbs
Height: 5'1"
Size Purchased: X-Small
Used for: Casual or Every Day
Being a petite person, 5’1” and 103lbs, I am not happy with how wide this petite xs sweater is at the bottom. The ribbed area is 3 1/2” high and it just stretches out at the bottom
