Is this cardigan warm enough for winter?

It is a light layering knit, not a heavy sweater. Buyers use it over tees and shirts in mild weather or indoors; in cold weather it works best under a coat.

Yes, several owners report pilling over time, which is common in soft synthetic-blend knits. Hand washing and avoiding friction help slow it down.

It is a loose fit with gently dropped shoulders and a regular length. Sleeves run long and billowy, and sizing is reported to vary between colors.

A soft knit with some wool content, though buyers note the fabric is mostly synthetic with little wool.

How should I care for it?

Treat it as a delicate knit: wash gently and dry flat to keep the shape. Given the pilling reports, avoid rough washing and high heat.
