- Is this sweater warm enough for winter?
- It is a mid-weight cotton knit, so it works as a layering piece. For freezing days you will want a base layer or jacket over it; it is not as insulating as wool.
- Does it itch like wool Fair Isle sweaters?
- No. The body is mostly cotton with a little elastane, so it feels soft on bare skin and avoids the prickle many people get from wool.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash at 30 degrees and lay flat to dry to keep the knit's shape. Avoid a hot dryer, which can shrink cotton and distort the pattern.
- How does it fit?
- It is a standard crewneck cut in adult sizes from XS up. The elastane gives some stretch, so it sits close without feeling tight.
- What colors is the pattern?
- The Clara Mix pairs red with ivory in a traditional Fair Isle banding. That makes it easy to wear with denim, navy or cream.
- Where is the BP Fair Isle Crewneck Sweater Red Ivory Clara Mix cheapest?
- At Nordstrom, for $46.56, as of our latest check.
