You know when it's cold and you want something cosy and warm and soft to wear but then it's itchy and makes you sweaty? This is NOT that! This top is so soft and there is no itching or grabbing on my skin. It breathes, too; at this time of year in the icy cold (in Canberra) it can be hard to find something to wear under a heavy coat that doesn't make you get sweaty. This top seems to magically keep you at the right temperature - warm enough that you don't need an extra layer between it and your overcoat, but not so warm that you overheat the minute you walk inside. The neckline is lovely and well suited to winter with scarves and jackets and coats. The sleeves are very flattering, particularly as I have large upper arms and am a pear shape - the added 'floof' in the shoulders turns a pear into an hourglass. Love it. Even with the matching knit scarf, it isn't too hot. I wish I had bought more during the free scarf special!
I haven't washed it yet - I think it will need to be treated very carefully so as not to damage or stretch it. That may end up being a downside but so far so good.
