My oatmeal/blue came yesterday and I was so happy with it that I ordered another one in green.  When I thought about cost per wear, it's not so expensive.  Where I live, this is outerwear for most of the "winter" months.  I'll get a lot of wear out of these two sweaters and they suit my 5'2" height.

Oh, and for the lady who said CCB designs for pre-teens, I'm 73 lol.  I don't know what's "pre-teen" about a cardigan.??

I just received my grey sweater, love it and fit is good.  Has anyone washed her sweater yet.  A reviewer said she washed and it came out terrible.  Would love to hear from you ladies if you washed and how did it come out.  Thanks!

My second TSV sweater arrived yesterday, and since it's dark green I decided to wash it before putting it away.  I have allergies and worry about possible irritation from fabric dyes. It dried overnight and looks just fine today.  The fold lines from packing were still there after washing so I steamed them out with my steamer. 

 

My sweater still looks perfect and brand new, so I'm not sure what that other reviewer did to hers.  Obviously, you don't throw a sweater into the washer the same as you might a tee shirt.  I buttoned it, turned inside out and zipped it into a mesh bag.  Then washed in in the handwash cycle with cold water and Tide.  Then I turned it right side out and spread it out flat on a sweater dryer.  That's what I do with all of my sweaters, and it's what the tag on this sweater says to do.

 

So no worries with washing the CCB TSV sweater!

@Desertdi

you made the right choice! I purchased in a large, it was boxy and the fabric was so thin you could read through it. Back it went, for almost $50 I could have purchased a well-made Isaac, Jason Wu or Denim & Co sweater.
