Thin material, but perfect to throw over a blouse. There is a weird ribbon connecting the shoulders (I assume to function as a hanger) so just cut that out and you're ready to go. The pockets are actually like the ends of the cardigan have been folded up and sewn to create them, so they feel a bit odd, but POCKETS are always good. Great colors and the price can't be beat.  Worth it for the price.
