Fine Knit Mock-Neck Sweater

Merino Wool Shoulder-Pad Sweater: Choose this if you want a 100% merino wool mock-neck pullover with built-in shoulder pads for a slightly structured shoulder line over a relaxed, boxy torso. It has ribbed trim at the collar, cuffs, and waist-length hem, a fine uniform knit in grey, and comes in sizes X-SMALL to X-LARGE as a Contemporaine exclusive designed in Canada. Note that the hem sits at the waist on top of trousers, so it may suit those who prefer a shorter cut.[1,2,3,4]Wool And Mohair Mock-Neck Sweater Exclusive Collection From Italy: Choose this if you want a modern, slightly oversized mock-neck with a chunky, fuzzy knit and rich, true-to-photo colors — reviewers found it warm and not bulky as a mid-layer under a coat. The fit runs true to size, but the body is short, almost cropped (one reviewer returned it expecting standard length), and the collar's internal elastic is too snug for many, though some fixed it by stretching or folding it. Note that the wool/mohair blend caused scratching and irritation for many reviewers with sensitive skin, who needed a long-sleeve base layer underneath.[5,6]Fine Knit Mock-Neck Sweater: Choose this if you want a fine-gauge mock-neck layer with a close but not skin-tight regular fit, made from a flowy, stretch fine knit in an 80% reprocessed viscose and 20% nylon blend. The low ribbed collar, slim long sleeves with ribbed cuffs, and ribbed hem that finishes around the upper hip give it a smooth, matte, pattern-free look. It comes in Black, Light Grey, Slate Blue, and Red across sizes X-SMALL to X-LARGE, though note the shoulder seams are slightly visible where the sleeves meet the body.[7,8,9]
