Pointelle Ruffle Wool & Cashmere Cardigan

This is a beautiful quality sweater, very warm, and I just love the sleeve detailing. I ordered the beige oatmeal and color is as shown - its a beautiful cream oatmeal color and goes with anything. I followed the size chart and fit perfectly, so the size chart is correct. It comes a tad shorter than I like (I'm longer waisted) - but it comes just as shown on model. Due to the way the ruffles are on the sweater - being at the top of shoulder area and mid shoulder placement - it has an effect of making you look "boxy" on top and this "boxy" look ends up adding weight to one's female silhouette - like man shoulders. This sweater is only 10 percent Cashmere and the rest is Wool - Dry Clean only Ladies is listed the tag - so I'm pretty certain if you wash this in a wash machine you will have a toddler size sweater. It is soooooo soft, warm for icy cold winters, and the sleeves are so beautiful/different.
