Openwork Geometric Mock Neck Sweater | White / S 100100374811131

How to Measure

Lay the sweater flat on a clean, smooth surface. Do not stretch the openwork knit while measuring. Use a soft tape measure and keep it parallel to the edges.

1. Length: From the high point of shoulder (where the shoulder seam meets the neck) straight down to the hem.
2. Bust/Chest: 2.5 cm/1 in below the armhole seam, measure straight across the front; double this number.
3. Shoulder Width: Seam to seam straight across the back.
4. Sleeve Length: From the shoulder seam to the end of cuff along the outer arm. For raglan, measure from neck seam to cuff.
5. Bicep: 2.5 cm/1 in below the armhole seam, straight across the sleeve; double this number.
6. Cuff Opening: Straight across the cuff; double this number.
7. Hem Sweep: Straight across the bottom hem; double this number.
8. Mock Neck Height: From the neck seam to top edge of the mock neck rib.
9. Neck Opening: Straight across the inside neck opening; double this number.

• Pro tip: Measure a similar sweater you love and compare to our size guide.
• Because this is a knit, allow a tolerance of ±1–2 cm (±0.5–0.75 in).
• For stretch knits, you can note both relaxed and gently stretched measurements.

Materials & Fabric

This is an openwork geometric knit with a mock neck. Openwork patterns create an airy, semi‑sheer effect and a soft drape.

Exact fiber content: Please refer to the product details on this page or the garment label. Common yarns for this style include:

• Cotton / Cotton Blends: Breathable, soft, great for transitional weather; holds structure with a cool hand feel.
• Merino/Wool/Alpaca: Warmth with light weight and elasticity; may have natural pilling; merino is typically softer and less itchy.
• Acrylic: Lightweight, colorfast, helps reduce weight and improves softness; easy care.
• Nylon/Polyester: Adds strength and shape retention to delicate openwork stitches.
• Elastane/Spandex (small %): Improves recovery to reduce stretching out at cuffs and hem.

• Hand‑feel: Airy with light texture from the geometric knit.
• Sheerness: Semi‑sheer due to openwork; layering recommended.
• Drape: Soft, fluid; structure varies with fiber content and rib trims.

Model & Fit Information

• On‑model look: Relaxed through the body with ribbed cuffs and hem; mock neck sits comfortably at the base of the neck (not a full turtleneck).
• Length: Designed to hit around the high‑hip to hip depending on torso length and size.
• Ease: Intended ease at bust typically 5–10 cm (2–4 in) for a relaxed silhouette.
• Layering: Works over a camisole, fitted tee, or slip due to semi‑sheer openwork.
• Sizing note: Choose your usual size for the photographed look. Size down for a closer fit or up for an oversized, slouchy drape.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Wash: Turn inside out. Hand wash in cold water with a gentle knitwear detergent, or machine wash cold on delicate in a mesh bag. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
• Dry: Do not wring. Press out excess water in a towel, reshape, and lay flat to dry away from heat and sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
• De‑pilling: Use a sweater comb or fabric shaver lightly as needed. Pilling is normal with soft yarns and improves after a few wears/care cycles.
• Snag care: If a loop pulls, do not cut it. Use a knit repair needle to gently pull the loop to the inside and secure.
• Storage: Fold and store flat. Avoid hanging to prevent stretching, especially with openwork. Keep away from rough surfaces and Velcro to prevent snags.
• Iron/Steam: Steam lightly to release wrinkles. If ironing is needed, use low heat and a pressing cloth; avoid pressing directly on the knit texture.
• Fiber‑specific tips: Wool/merino/alpaca benefit from airing between wears; wash less often. Cotton can be washed more frequently but still dry flat to maintain shape.
• Travel: Fold with tissue paper to protect the openwork; pack in a garment bag.

Style Tips

• Layering base: Pair with a tonal camisole or fitted tee to showcase the geometric openwork. For contrast, choose a lighter or darker underlayer.
• Proportions: Half‑tuck into high‑waisted jeans or tailored trousers to balance the relaxed body.
• Office polish: Add a structured blazer and a silk camisole, finish with loafers or ankle boots.
• Evening edge: Layer over a satin slip skirt or leather pants; swap the camisole for a sleek bralette if desired.
• Weekend casual: Style with straight‑leg denim and minimalist sneakers; add a cross‑body bag—mind metal hardware to avoid snags.
• Cold‑weather layering: Wear over a fitted turtleneck or long‑sleeve tee; top with a longline coat or puffer.
• Accessories: Keep jewelry smooth and snag‑safe. Statement earrings and a clean belt complement the mock neck and rib trims.
• Color play: Enhance the pattern by layering with a contrasting color base; go tonal for a subtle, textured look.
