Fae Striped Cardigan

After never never being worn and an initial hand wash, which brought shrinkage, this is one I'll be donating. I give myself a one to no-star rating for not returning after opening the package. My mistake.
Though the items are always wrapped with care and a lovely gift included (thank you Skye for those things), it's not right that I should receive an item dissimilar to the website photo. Besides what was stated in my first review, the shoulders of the one received are raglan, not like the more set in knit style. The ribbed sleeve edge and bottom do not relax and I could only achieve the photo look with stretching while wet, then steaming and stretching after air dried. As you can see, the space between the buttons gaps when hanging and is much more emphasized when on the body. I was also expecting more cream length on the top and bottom of the sweater. I did size up as suggested though two sizes for me would have been more fitting. If a smaller classic style is hoped for, and you have a small bust and shoulders, this style may work for you.

I am a fan of the classic French mariner striped cardigan. Skye did not disappoint with this updated version. Fabulous fabric in a unique pink color way. I purchased in small but am considering exchanging for a medium for a looser fit. Also, I am also considering purchasing in the tan option. Thanks for this classic piece and for the special goodies you always include in my package!
