Brushed Crossover Sweater
The Brushed Crossover Sweater is a cropped, long-sleeve pullover knit by Icône by Simons, made from a plush, stretch knit with a brushed finish and constructed with a crossover front that creates a moderate V-neck and a small diagonal opening at the hem, plus dropped shoulder seams, a center-back seam, and ribbed cuffs and hem. It is intended for casual wear as a standalone or layering top with a fitted waist and midriff-exposing front hem. Fiber composition is not specified beyond the brushed stretch knit; user reports on comparable brushed crossover knits cite shrinkage after washing and pilling after first wear, so cold washing and flat drying are recommended.

Compared within this brand.
| Brushed Crossover Sweater: Choose this if you want a cropped crossover pullover in a plush, brushed stretch knit with a soft, slightly fuzzy feel and a relaxed, boxy fit with dropped shoulders. The overlapping front panels form a V-neck and a small front opening that exposed the model's midriff as worn, and the hem sits above the waist with ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem band. It comes in Black, Ivory/Cream Beige, and Lilacs, sized X-Small through X-Large, in a blend that is mostly recycled and regular polyester with some nylon, acrylic, wool, and spandex.[1,2,3,4] | Irregular Ribbing Crossover V-Neck Sweater: Choose this if you want a fitted, cropped short-sleeve knit with a deep crossover V-neck and an asymmetric pointed hem that ends at the natural waist. It is made of 85% viscose and 15% polyester in an ultra-supple, stretch knit with irregular narrow ribbing, offered in small, medium, and large sizes. Note that the lightweight fabric is slightly sheer in areas where the ribs are more spaced, so underlayer choices may matter.[5,6,7] | Touch Of Wool Raglan Sleeves Henley Sweater: Choose this if you want a relaxed, slightly cropped henley in a soft wool-and-cashmere-wool blend — reviewers consistently praise the fabric as luxuriously comfortable against the skin, and the design includes slightly puffed raglan sleeves, a short button placket, and wide ribbed cuffs and hem. It comes in Light Grey, Teal, and Corn/Vanilla Yellow across X-Small to X-Large. Note that a number of reviewers say the sizing runs large and suggest going down a size if you prefer a closer fit, while others find the fit perfect.[8,9] |

Shrinkage concerns due to rayon material
It's mostly rayon, of course it shrinks. Rayon always shrinks. Worst material ever. I used to stretch my rayon shirts out when they were wet to the original size.

Pilling after first wear and dupe request
Pass! I just wore mine for the first time today, it pilled so bad! Taking it in for a QP ASAP!
