By Anna the heavey sweater lover from Ann Arbor, MI on 11/17/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Flattering, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Wear To Work Describe Yourself: Casual Dresser Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This sweater is great. Very good quality. The comments on sizing were mixed and confusing, so I will add mine for anyone out there who is my size: I am 5'9" and lean/athletic (I wear a 6 or 8). I got the small and it fits great. It is fitted enough to not look frumpy but not so tight that having a thick shirt underneath makes it look too small. The length is great (to my hip bones) and the sleeves are long enough - but just barely.
By Malcolm from Fairbanks Alaska on 11/17/2009 Pros: Comfortable, High Quality, Stylish, Warm Best Uses: Alaska Winter, Casual Wear, Everyday, Travel Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Practical Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a very warm, functional and stylish garment. Made from great wool and well contructed. On the down side the sizing is riidiulously larger than advertized. I have a 42" chest and typically wear size LARGE sweaters. I initially ordered a LARGE size of this sweater and received something that fit like a lumpy house dress. I sent it back and got a MEDIUM. Once again it was far too large for me; I would decscribe it as XX-LARGE. I considered returning it for a SMALL until I checked the website and noticed SMALL size was not available. I washed it in hot water and then dried it in the dryer and managed to shrink it to the perfect size!
I am now very pleased with the quality and fit of this sweater.

By bike boy from chicago on 11/17/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, High Quality, Stylish, Versatile, Warm, Washes Well Best Uses: Casual Wear, Everyday, Going Out, Office, Travel Describe Yourself: Practical Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: okay...i bought the sweater knowing full well that it was a size too big (i usually wear a small or extra small, depending...). but, even for a medium, it felt kind of big. i washed it in cold water and laid it flat to dry it, but it was still big.
that being said, it really is a nice-looking, nice-feeling sweater. (yes, i did wear it.) the cable knit isn't as tight as i thought it was going to be, but still...it does look good. i'm thinking of giving it to one of my brothers or friends since they're all bigger than i am. (shhh...don't tell 'em i wore it.)
A well made and appealing sweater By Vintage Gent from Galveston, TX on 11/17/2009 Pros: Comfortable, High Quality, Stylish, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Everyday, Office, Travel Describe Yourself: Classic, High-end shopper, Stylish Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased this sweater in the charcoal color, size medium. The sweater is one of the more appealing examples of shawl collar cardigans I've come across. My experience with size medium sweaters is that they can be a bit too large, even for my 5'11", 185 lb. frame. This, however, had a nice trim fit, so for those wanting a looser fit, you should probably size up. One quibble: the listing suggests that the sweater is made from merino wool. Not true; it's made from new wool--and there is a difference.
