This sweater is a thin jersey-like material. The large fit me a little big (I am 5'9 and 160 pounds, generally a size 10), but the most glaring issue was the front hem, which was so, so long. As I said, I am 5'9 and the dangly part went past my knees. It looked ridiculous on me. I am so disappointed because I liked the fabric as well as the price, but alas it was not meant to be.
