Customer Reviews for L.L.Bean Women's Sunwashed Waffle Splitneck Sweater, Lightweight 100% Cotton
View Product DetailsCustomer Reviews
What customers say:
Customers overwhelmingly praise the sweater for its soft, lightweight waffle-knit cotton and flattering V-neck design. Many highlight the comfortable fabric, rich sunwashed colors, and quality construction as reasons for repeat purchases. However, most note the sweater runs large and boxy, recommending sizing down. Sleeve length divides reviewers—those with longer arms find them perfect, while others find them excessively long. A few report craftsmanship concerns. Despite fit inconsistencies, most customers consider it a worthwhile wardrobe staple.

Soft, comfy, and well made. It runs big though.... I got XL thinking the cotton would shrink....spoiler alert.... It didnt. Now I have a very loose soft, comfy sweater!

Nice V Neck Sweater

Nice. The V neck does dip low on me. I layer with a tank top then I am comfortable.

Size down, but arms too long

Great sweater until you wash it
Size Purchased: Large
Used for: Casual or Every Day
Lovely color (teal), sturdy cotton, generous fit. But "machine wash, dry flat." No. It comes out of the washer stretched, Shrek-sized, misshapen. "Dry flat" won't do correct those
