FAQs

What material is the Vitow Knit Cardigan made of?

The cardigan is made from an Italian yarn blend consisting of 34% alpaca, 34% wool, 29% polyamide, and 3% elastane.

How should I determine my size?

The cardigan has an oversized, voluminous fit. Refer to standard sizing charts for American Vintage if available, but consider that the intended fit is relaxed and larger than a traditional cut.

Can this cardigan be worn in warmer weather?

While it's lightweight for a wool blend, it might still be too warm for high temperatures. It is best suited for transitional weather or as a layering piece in cooler climates.

What is the primary benefit of the oversized fit?

The oversized fit offers a relaxed silhouette, maximizing comfort and providing a contemporary, fashionable look that is easy to style.

Are the buttons functional?

Yes, the cardigan features functional mother-of-pearl buttons for fastening and closure.

How does the cropped length affect styling?

The cropped length makes it versatile for pairing with high-waisted bottoms (jeans, trousers, skirts) and also works well layered over longer tops or dresses, creating a balanced silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Cardigan feels itchy

While the blend is designed for softness, some individuals may be sensitive. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, which can help soften the fibers further. Wearing a thin layer underneath can also mitigate itchiness.

Cardigan has lost its shape after washing

Ensure you are hand washing in cold water and drying flat. Reshape the cardigan gently while damp. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment. If significant distortion occurred, professional reshaping at a dry cleaner might help.

Pilling has appeared on the fabric

Pilling is natural for wool blends. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or a fine-tooth comb. Washing inside out and using a gentle cycle (if machine washing, though hand wash is preferred) can help minimize pilling.

  • Stylish oversized and cropped silhouette.
  • Versatile for casual and chic outfits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As a garment, the Vitow Knit Cardigan requires no setup. Its compatibility is high, designed to layer over various tops, blouses, and dresses.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand Wash Cold: Due to the delicate wool and alpaca blend, it is recommended to hand wash the cardigan in cold water.
  • Dry Flat: Reshape the garment and lay it flat on a clean towel to dry. Avoid hanging while wet, as this can distort the shape.
  • Do Not Bleach: Avoid using any bleaching agents.
  • Do Not Tumble Dry: Do not put the cardigan in a dryer.
  • Iron Low Heat: If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron carefully, preferably on the reverse side.
  • Dry Clean (Optional): Professional dry cleaning can be an alternative if hand washing is not preferred, but ensure the cleaner uses appropriate solvents for wool blends.
