Openwork Round Neck Long Sleeve Slit Sweater | Beige / S 100100752115277

How to Measure This Sweater

Measure the garment laid flat on a table. Do not stretch the knit. Use a soft tape and record in cm (double chest and hem for full circumference).

1. Chest (A): Measure straight across from underarm seam to underarm seam. Multiply by 2 for the full chest.
2. Shoulder width (B): Measure from shoulder seam to shoulder seam. If the style has a dropped shoulder, measure between the highest points where the sleeve meets the body.
3. Sleeve length (C): From the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. If there is no defined shoulder seam (raglan), measure from the side of the collar to the cuff.
4. Body length (D): From the highest point of the shoulder (beside the neck) to the hem. For slit hems, note both front length and back length if they differ.
5. Hem width (E): Measure straight across at the hem and multiply by 2.
6. Slit height (F): Measure from the bottom hem up to the top of the slit. If there are slits on both sides, measure one side.
7. Cuff opening (G) (optional): Measure across the cuff opening and multiply by 2.
8. Neck width/depth (H) (optional): Measure across the neck opening and from the highest shoulder point to the lowest point of the neckline.

• Allow a measurement tolerance of 1–3 cm due to knit construction.
• Openwork knits can “grow” in length after hanging; measure after the sweater has rested flat.
• Compare garment measurements to a similar sweater you own for best size selection.

Materials & Construction

This Openwork Round Neck Long Sleeve Slit Sweater features an airy, patterned knit (openwork/pointelle) designed for breathability and drape. Fiber content can vary by color or production batch; always refer to the composition listed on your product tag. Below is a quick guide to common fibers used in openwork sweaters and what they feel like:

• Cotton: Natural, breathable, soft hand-feel; holds shape reasonably well; ideal for warmer weather or layering.
• Acrylic: Lightweight, soft, colorfast; resists shrinkage; may pill over time; easy care.
• Nylon/Polyester: Adds strength and recovery to keep the openwork pattern stable; improves durability and shape retention.
• Wool/Alpaca/Mohair: Warmth with loft and texture; cozy and insulating; may require gentler care and can feel slightly fuzzy.
• Viscose/Rayon: Smooth, cool touch with elegant drape; can feel slightly heavier; handle gently when wet.
• Elastane/Spandex: A small percentage improves stretch and recovery, helping the knit maintain its silhouette.

What to expect from an openwork knit

• Breathability: The pattern allows airflow—perfect for transitional seasons or layered looks.
• Sheerness: Open stitches can be semi-transparent; pair with a tonal camisole or bralette if desired.
• Movement: Side slits add ease at the hip and enhance drape over skirts or pants.
• Care level: Avoid snagging on jewelry or bags; wash gently to preserve stitch definition.

Tip: If your label mentions standards such as RWS (wool) or BCI (cotton), that indicates additional sourcing criteria for the fiber. Not all colors/batches will necessarily carry the same standard.

Model & Fit Notes

• On-model look: Relaxed, easy silhouette through the body with a classic round neckline and full-length sleeves.
• Length: Typically sits at high hip to hip; side slits provide comfort and layering room.
• Transparency: Openwork pattern shows subtle skin or layers; style with nude or tonal underpinnings for a seamless look.
• Choosing your size: True-to-size for a relaxed fit. Size up for an oversized, slouchy vibe; size down for a neater silhouette.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Before washing: Turn the sweater inside out and close any zippers/buttons on other items to prevent snags.
• Hand wash or gentle cycle: Use cold water and a mild wool/delicate detergent. Place the sweater in a mesh bag if machine washing.
• No bleach or fabric softener: These can weaken fibers and dull the knit pattern.
• Rinse and press, don’t wring: Gently press out water. For hand wash, roll in a towel to absorb excess.
• Dry flat: Reshape to measurements and lay flat on a clean towel or drying rack away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
• Do not hang: Hanging can stretch openwork stitches; store folded.
• De-pilling: Remove any pills with a sweater comb or fabric shaver—light pressure only.
• Snag care: Do not cut snags. Use a blunt needle or crochet hook to pull the loop gently to the inside and secure.
• Freshen between wears: Air out after use; light steaming from the inside helps relax creases. If ironing, use low heat with a pressing cloth.
• Seasonal storage: Clean before storing; fold with tissue; consider cedar or lavender sachets to deter moths.

Style Tips

• Layering essential: Pair with a nude or tonal camisole to keep the openwork pattern the star. For contrast, try a black or white layer underneath.
• High-low balance: Wear with high-rise denim or tailored trousers; the side slits drape nicely over structured bottoms.
• Skirts & dresses: Pop over a slip dress or midi skirt—the open knit adds texture without bulk.
• Proportions: For an oversized look, size up and balance with slim bottoms. For a neat silhouette, size true and tuck the front lightly.
• Office polish: Layer over a collared shirt; let the collar peek through the round neckline for subtle structure.
• Accessories: Keep jewelry smooth to avoid snags—think hoop earrings, smooth bangles, and a minimal belt.
• Seasonal switch: In cooler weather, add a longline coat; in spring, pair with light-wash denim and low-profile sneakers or loafers.
