I like the sweater.  It's very heavy, so a light shirt underneath is all that's required.  One thing that surprised me was the braiding that trims the neckline and front.  It is comprised of three knit tubes that are braided together and then tacked onto the sweater every 4 inches or so. I have a habit of closing cardigans across my front from time to time and this design made me nervous that the tacking would break and I'd damage the sweater. It's a cute cardie - just kind of weird to wear. I'd be interested to hear what other buyers think about this design.
