Women's Westerley, Cardigan Sweater, 100% Virgin Wool, Sweaters for Women, Heavy Cable Knitted Sweater

I get lots of complements on it. I worried about it being scratchy, but the liner prevents the wool from aggravating the skin. It is very warm and heavy, perfect for fall and even winter days, mire like a coat than sweater. I have not washed it yet, and if I have to I will probably give it to dry-cleaners. The pattern looks beautiful and also photographs very well. It doesn’t seem like it will fuzz up, what makes the price of it totally worth it. Seems like it will last for a very long time. I’m 5’10 with a slim torso. The length of size M seems great. I live the collar. I also like the fact that I can roll up the bottom if the sweater under and make it look great with high waist jeans.

I am cold in my house from October to March and wanted something warm. This is it. The tight thick knit keeps the cold out. I am a true medium in women's Vince, Theory and Pendleton sweaters, and first ordered a medium because of the reviews saying it runs big. The medium was a true fit and looked nice, but wasn't comfortable with any kind of sweater or sweatshirt under it and I wanted this to layer. I also found the medium a bit snug under the armpit area and the sleeve length was just enough versus the large which goes over my wrist a bit or I can roll it a tad, and I like that (I'm 5'7"). The large just has more room overall and is a much looser fit which is what I wanted. Thankfully, Amazon exchange made it easy to get the large to confirm it would work and am sending back the medium.

The craftsmanship is amazing. The wool is very dense brioche stitch. It is so heavy that it could/should be worn like a jacket. The fit is quite over sized but that is a good thing because someone is more likely to wear long sleeves under it because it is 100 percent wool. Sometimes I wash my dry clean only wool clothes by hand at home but I am unwilling to take the chance with this one-I can tell that it would definitely shrink if wet. I was considering knitting this pattern myself but it was on sale and thought it would be worthwhile to wear and use as a reference, especially considering the time and cost of materials. If someone preferred a lighter sweater, hated wool, or worried about ruining this sweater, a knock off of this pattern might suffice. It’s somewhat deceiving —the way it’s worn in the movie. The sweater is such high quality and woolly that I would never think of wearing it with a T-shirt and PJ bottoms.

I adore this sweater. I live in Michigan and it can get bitter cold. Today was a balmy 35 degrees and I used this sweater as a coat. Worked great. Also really enjoy the double zip feature. For reference, I’m 5’4, 170 and I got the XL. Fits perfect. I do have to say, I’m a little disappointed that the sweater is “pilling” under the arms after just 3 times wearing. Maybe that’s what lamb wool is supposed to do? I can live with it, seeing I will have this for decades. Don’t hesitate to buy this. This is a piece that can be passed on to kids and grands if you take good care of it. You’ll also get a lot of people smiling at you when you wear it, but that just my opinion, man!

I purchased it in grey and it exceeded my expectations. I already purchased this cardigan a year ago when I was 50 lbs heavier. Then I bought navy blue in Large. Gosh, it was heavy and huge! But so I was also! This winter I craved real warmth and I know - nothing can compare to a good Pendleton cardigan, so I decided to try before I buy, as I was not sure about sizing and whether I will be able to wear it to work as the sweater is so heavy and thick, it might not fit under my coat. I was impressed with how beautiful the grey version is. It is much more slimming than the blue version and crème coloured one. Small size sits perfectly on me. And yes, I purchased it right away.

Love this sweater. It is so warm and cozy. It is well made. I got an extra large so it’s a little big but i like it a little baggy. It is wool so it is a little scratchy but i usually wear a long sleeve shirt underneath it anyway. I think it will just get softer with time and wear.

I love my sweater, it’s beautiful and very warm ; great quality too

I really like this sweater in terms of quality. BUT, it's way too tight and narrow in the hips for me. I ordered XL b/c I wanted a big bulky sweater. This seems to run small and narrow.
