The turtleneck sweater for the first chilly walk to work

Check price on Amazon Opens Amazon.com · affiliate link

This turtleneck sweater is knit from a soft, lightweight cotton blend yarn that the listing says has beautiful drape. It has a fold over collar and a close but comfortable fit, so it can sit under a jacket or stand on its own. It is also sold in Cornflower Blue, Sage Green Heather and Olive.

The fabric is 55% cotton, 25% modal and 20% polyester, so cotton makes up more than half and polyester the smallest share. The listing calls the yarn soft and lightweight and says it has beautiful drape, which suggests a sweater that hangs rather than stands away from the body. How that looks on you is a matter of your own eye, and the listing gives no weight or thickness figure.

The fit is described as classic, close but comfortable, with easy movement. The listing gives no measurements, so check the size chart before ordering. The fold over turtleneck has rib detail, and so do the cuffs and hem, which gives each edge a defined finish. It is a pull on style, so there are no buttons or zips to deal with. The listing calls it a modern, classic layering piece for a polished or casual look.

Care is listed as machine wash. No water temperature or drying method is stated, so the care label is worth a read once it arrives. The sweater is imported. It is sold in Cornflower Blue, Sage Green Heather and Olive versions, and choosing between them is a matter of taste rather than measurement.
