Charming Cardi By RachelReviews on Sep 14, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This is a new cardigan I received for winter and fall. It will help me transition my summer clothing to the cooler weather. The fabric is really soft. It is made out of 100% acrylic. I'm not a huge fan of acrylic. It usually makes me feel really overheated. This sweater hasn't made me feel too hot.

I like the color of this. It matches my new Michael Kors bag. It's a creamy, off-white color. The buttons are a pretty, opalescent, milky, matching white color. I like the cable knit, twisted stitch at the collar. Most of the sweater has smooth stitches, so that ropey-looking stitch adds visual interest. I also like the interesting stitches at the shoulder. Additionally, I like the thicker, knitted trim on the button area and at the hip. At times, pushing the buttons through the holes can be a little more difficult than I'd like. It seems like maybe the holes are a little tight or a little too small for the buttons. The fit of this is pretty good. I think this fits a bit loose on my body which will be good for layering.

It is machine washable (Warm) and can be dried on gentle, tumble-dry low.
