Practical measuring instructions, material details, model reference, care tips and styling ideas to help you choose, maintain and wear this sweater.

How to measure

Measure your body (for choosing a size)

1. Chest — Wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the armpits and across the shoulder blades. Keep the tape level and relaxed. Record measurement in inches or cm.
2. Waist — Measure around your natural waist (narrowest part) or where you normally wear your trousers.
3. Hips — Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
4. Neck — Measure around the base of the neck for a comfortable turtleneck fit; allow one finger between the tape and neck for ease.
5. Shoulder width — Measure across the back from the outer edge of one shoulder bone to the other with arms relaxed at your sides.
6. Sleeve length — From center back of the neck (base) across the shoulder to the wrist, or from shoulder tip to wrist for a precise sleeve fit.
7. Body length — From the highest point of the shoulder (base of the neck) down to the desired hemline.

Measure a garment (to compare with the product size chart)

1. Lay the sweater flat on a smooth, flat surface and smooth out wrinkles without stretching the fabric.
2. Chest (pit-to-pit) — Measure straight across from one armpit seam to the other, then double that measurement to get circumference.
3. Waist / Hip — Measure across the narrowest/widest point and double the number.
4. Shoulder — Measure across the back from seam to seam.
5. Sleeve — Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
6. Length — Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (near the collar) to the hem.

Fit guidance: For a comfortable sweater fit allow approximately 3–5 inches (8–13 cm) of ease at the chest over your body measurement. For a slimmer fit allow about 1–2 inches (2.5–5 cm) of ease. If you plan to layer under the sweater, choose the larger end of the range.

Materials

Common fiber options for this style and what to expect:

• 100% Cotton — Soft, breathable and comfortable. Easy to care for; may shrink slightly if washed hot.
• Cotton blends (cotton + acrylic/nylon) — Softer hand, improved shape retention and durability; generally easy-care.
• Acrylic — Lightweight, warm and affordable. Resistant to moths and easy to wash; may pill over time.
• Merino wool / wool blends — Natural warmth, breathability and odor resistance. Typically needs gentle washing or dry cleaning to avoid shrinkage.
• Cashmere / cashmere blends — Extremely soft and luxurious; delicate—hand wash or dry clean and dry flat.
• Polyester / synthetic blends — Added for durability, wrinkle resistance and quick drying.
• Elastane / Spandex (small %) — Adds stretch and recovery for improved fit and comfort.

Knits vary by gauge: fine-gauge knits give a sleeker look, medium/heavy gauges add structure and warmth. Always check the product label for exact fiber content and care symbols.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Check the care label first. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when provided.
2. Wash sparingly. Air out between wears and spot-clean stains when possible.
3. Machine wash (if allowed): Use a gentle/delicate cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Turn the sweater inside out.
4. Hand wash (recommended for wool/cashmere or delicate blends): Use cool water and a mild wool detergent, gently press—don’t wring. Rinse and press out water between towels.
5. Dry flat: Reshape while damp and dry on a flat surface away from direct heat and sunlight. Avoid hanging wet knits to prevent stretching.
6. Low heat only: Avoid tumble drying and high-heat ironing. If ironing is needed, use low heat with a cloth barrier or steam gently.
7. De-pill gently: Use a fabric comb or pill remover to remove bobbles carefully.
8. Store folded: Fold and store knits in a cool, dry place. Use breathable storage and consider cedar or lavender sachets to deter moths.

Style Tips

• Layering: Wear under a blazer, denim jacket or wool coat. For plus-size styling, an open jacket over the turtleneck creates vertical lines and a streamlined silhouette.
• Balance the fit: Aim for a sweater that follows your shape without clinging excessively; midweight knits with a little structure work best.
• Color pairing: Neutrals like navy, charcoal and black are versatile; olive, camel and rich jewel tones add interest and pair well with denim or chinos.
• Tuck or untuck: A slight front tuck into trousers can define the waist; leave untucked for a relaxed look with jeans.
• Neck treatment: Fold the collar once for a classic look or leave a looser roll for a contemporary feel—ensure comfort around the neck.
• Footwear & accessories: Pair with clean sneakers for casual, or Chelsea/chelsea-style boots for a smarter outfit. Keep accessories minimal to maintain clean lines.
• Mix textures: Combine the sweater with leather, denim or structured wool pieces to create depth without adding bulk.
