I ADORE this sweater !!!! It looks exactly as advertised. It's 100% cotton and fits true to size. The cotton knit fabric is not too thin or too thick; however, if you run hot, then this weave may not work for you. I washed it in cold water and air-dried it flat, so I don't know how it does in the dryer. Personally, I don't throw knits in the dryer, especially cotton knits; this causes unnecessary wear and tear on the garment, and lint from other clothing gets stuck to it as its being tossed around.
