Is this cardigan see-through?

Yes. The open pointelle stitch is sheer, so plan on a camisole or tank underneath.

100% cotton knit. It is lightweight and breathable, with no wool or synthetic blend.

It is cut close and some buyers say it runs small. Compare the chest and length measurements to a cardigan you already own.

Can I wear it in winter?

Not on its own. The short sleeves and open knit suit spring, summer and air-conditioned rooms; in cold weather it works only as a base layer.

How should I wash it?

Hand wash or use a delicate cycle in cold water and lay flat to dry. Pointelle cotton stretches out of shape on a hanger or in a dryer.

Our take on the J.Crew Factory Cotton Pointelle Cardigan Sweater

A lightweight short-sleeve cardigan in 100% cotton with an all-over open-stitch pointelle pattern, crew neck, full button front and scalloped lettuce edges at the cuffs. The open knit makes it a layering piece for warm weather rather than a standalone sweater. It suits shoppers who want a fine-gauge, vintage-leaning layer over a camisole or dress. Against plain cotton cardigans it trades warmth for texture and breathability, and the open stitch means it shows whatever sits underneath.
