Re: Who still has ramie and cotton sweaters?

[ Edited ]

I do.  I always wear cotton or cotton ramie blend clothing, including sweaters.  I love them...so comfortable.

 

I also have a ton of just cotton sweaters.  I have enough of Lands End drifters to open my own store.

 

I hate acrylic sweaters, junk, pure junk IMO.

@BirkiLadyRemember Sigrid Olsen that made the beautiful color combinations in cotton or silk ramie sweaters with slacks to match?  They were sold through department stores like Belk and Dillards here.  This was before we had web capabilities.

 

I had some beautiful things.

I had a few that I donated recently---they bagged out after wearing and then couldn't throw them in the dryer--too high maintenance for me.
