I am a size 2XL in most clothes and I contacted ClammyHeart since I was unsure about sizing and was wondering if the cotton cardigan would shrink. IT DOES SHRINK!! For me that is a good thing since I ordered a size up (3XL) and when I first got it and tried it on it was really uncomfortable, loose, and baggy but AFTER A WASH it fits perfectly! It is still a little long in the sleeves but that's what I wanted so I am glad. It basically fits me now how the Blueberry variant fits the model in the pictures, with the sleeves when not rolled up having the cuffs around my last knuckle/fingertips. I am VERY HAPPY with my purchase!!
Keep in mind that to care for the garment I have been advised to air dry after washing, which can take about a day or so if left flat on a drying rack, but from what I've read that's normal for knit stuff (and you're not supposed to hang it or it might stretch out- most of this info can be found about knit garments by looking online)
As for the feel, it has a nice weight to it, and the quality of the knit is very good! I wouldn't wear this in the height of summer but on a cool day it feels so cozy! Definitely feels like a high quality item and worth the money to me. I also love the design- keep in mind if you get the blueberry version the blueberries are like plum sized in person, so it confused my kid brother lol even though it was obvious to me they were blueberries- I really like it and this will definitely be a staple part of my wardrobe. I was nervous about spending $100 on something so specialized (I usually buy walmart clothes lol) but it is definitely worth it and I am sure it will last a long time as well!
