I've been wearing this crochet cardigan nonstop since it arrived! The hollow-out pattern is so breezy - perfect for throwing over tank tops when I need just a bit of coverage without overheating. What surprised me most was how versatile it is. I've worn it to brunch with jeans, as a beach cover-up, and even dressed up with a sundress for evening drinks.
The fabric feels surprisingly soft against my skin, though I do agree with some reviewers that natural fibers would have been nicer. Still, the lightweight material makes it ideal for hot summer days when you want something airy. I got the grey color (which is more of a heathered charcoal) and it literally goes with everything in my wardrobe.
A word of caution - the open weave does mean you need to be careful with jewelry. I learned this the hard way when my bracelet snagged slightly on the first wear. Now I either roll up the sleeves or skip bracelets altogether when wearing this.
For sizing reference, I'm usually between medium and large in tops, and the medium fits perfectly with just the right amount of drape. It hasn't stretched out after several wears and washes (I always use a mesh bag and lay flat to dry).
Honestly? This might be my favorite summer purchase. It takes up no space in my bag but instantly elevates any outfit from basic to boho-chic. The price point makes it easy to justify getting another color!
