The cotton yarn was a bit rougher than I thought it would be for a cardigan, but if I wash it with fabric softener it should be no problem. The seam for the very bottom hem on the back right panel was sewn unevenly, so there was risk of unraveling. No problem though, I just hand stitched it to reinforce and pull the looser strands together. Embroidery itself was top notch! It goes very well with my other final frontier items.
