Product Insights
The Scale Texture Fine-Knit Cardigan by Contemporaine, priced at 69 CAD and in stock, offers a true-to-size body-hugging fit crafted from 100% reprocessed cotton reclaimed from pre-consumer manufacturing waste to reduce textile waste. Its main tradeoff is the need for careful maintenance: washing in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mesh bag and drying flat to prevent shrinkage, pilling, and stretching.

Cute little cardigan
Bought this as an alternative to a blazer for work and it is super cute. Fits nicely, albeit a little shorter in the body (I am 5’8) but the arms are a perfect length. Fits exactly like the picture (as far as length goes). Looks great with both black dress pants and skirts. Soft material. It’s a keeper.
Enjoying wearing this sweater.
