Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Cotton Ragg Sweaters Open Cardigan

I have two of these sweaters and they are, hands down, my favorite sweaters in my wardrobe. They are cozy, flattering, warm without overheating, and very comfortable. I have the natural and navy and they are so versatile. The M Petite fits me perfectly, sleeves and all. I love the length of the body. They wash beautifully. I wash it in the machine on delicate and then dry it about halfway in the dryer, shape and drape over my drying rack to finish drying...perfect every time.

I love this cozy sweater so much. It was a go-to while working from home last winter. Paired with a T and leggings, it was a warm and comforting, which I needed last year. It will also look nice this winter as we head back to the office. It has held up well with gentle wash and air drying. Sizing was just right and I have long arms too.

The weave and all the seams appear to be well constructed. The fabric is soft and just the weight and stretchiness I like. Size is actually a PS which converts perfectly to my usual P6. It is not too loose nor too snug, and it does not overpower me. The sleeves are exactly the right length and the overall length hits at mid-thigh, as expected. Cotton rag is challenging to launder, but, from experience, it stiffens as it dries. I usually allow it to reach a slightly damp condition before putting it in the dryer for under 5 minutes to fluff this fabric back up a bit. Couldn't be happier with my purchase!

I love this sweater! Fit is perfect, very pretty pattern, Nice and thick knit, but neat and simple! Great Sweater!

This is a beautiful sweater. It was my Mis-take to Oder it. I t would be great for someone in a colder climate. I live In the sub tropics. I thought since it was cotton that it would be lighter. It's pretty hefty. So I need to return for something lighter.

I have not worn it yet, but I love the color and the fit. I can't wait to layer it with a white button down and a pair of jeans.

I was looking at a more neutral color but decided to try the red b/c it wasn't on backorder. It is vibrant and wonderful, soft, warm, but doesn't feel or look bulky! And I am thrilled with the color! I usually go back and forth between L and XL and the L is perfect!

I am thrilled that I bought this product. The colors match so many things in my wardrobe; primarily denim. The weight is perfect as is the fit. I highly recommend this sweater! Don't hesitate.

This cardigan (in red, of course) lives on the back of my home office chair, to be worn when a little more warmth is needed. It fits very well, even with a semi-bulky sweater underneath. Good pockets. If you need it closed in the front, use a pretty decorative brooch to pin it closed.

Love the red color. Looks great on me and my husband has commented several times on how nice and warm it looks. I wear it some every day. Washes nicely.

I love these sweaters. They are just the right weight and hang perfectly on my frame. And pockets........you always need pockets. They are so very comfortable and extremely durable. I'll be working on getting a different color each year.

I ordered an extra-large in this sweater to wear over other clothing and its fits perfectly. I love LL Bean and the quality of their products.

It's so comfortable and perfect to take the chill away on a winter night. Fit, style and appearance couldn't be better.

I have a pink one that I just love, but this one was not true to size. so it doesn't fit correctly, but I like so I am still wearing it.

I bought this for my daughter and she loves it. The feel, the fit, everything is perfect.

I normally wear regular and medium but that was unavailable so I went with a petite large and fortunately it fit fine

I absolutely love this cardigan. It is so versatile. I have trouble with wearing polyester/wool sweaters because they are so itchy and just don't breath enough for me. I love that this is 100% cotton (more eco friendly) but still very warm! It has just the right amount of roominess to wear over long sleeve shirts without being super tight. Not too bulky either for putting a coat over to go out. It did shed a little bit initially when I first got it, but after washing and wearing it it no longer sheds. It's also a great for maternity/nursing in the winter since it's open in the front! Definitely would like to get another color.

Best, softest and warmest cotton rag sweater ever. I wish the dark navy color would come back in a medium

I've been buying my sweaters too big so I bought a petite small and it fits perfectly. Sleeves felt tight because I'm used to them being baggy and sloppy. I have it on today and even though it 28 degrees outside I'm toasty warm in the truck. We just got our COVID-19 vaccination.

She loves it.

I purchased two of these sweaters and have been very happy with them. The colors are slightly darker in person than they appear in the online photos, which is nice. They are very comfortable to wear and maintain their shape. They have some weight to them but are very durable and thick. I can still wear them with a heavy jacket in the winter but it's not uncomfortably snug underneath a jacket when worn together. They are very warm, so if you work in a warm office or move around a lot throughout the day, you may need to remove your sweater since they are pretty warm to wear. I love these sweaters and can see them lasting for many, many years!

The sweater is warm due to its tight knit and soft. The length is perfect, fitting just below my hips. I purchased a similar style sweater a few years back from LL Bean and it did not have the pockets but I loved the sweater anyways. So the added pockets are wonderful!! The sleeve openings are better reinforced also so air doesn't get up the sleeve. It is an excellent quality item.

I wear it most of the time around the house.

Bought as gift for my daughter. It is a beautiful sweater and I plan to order one for myself if my size is still available.

So cozy and comfortable! The sweater has some weight to it and feels good on. I'm thinking about purchasing a second in another color.
