ADELINE | Knit pullover with open weave sleeves

My arms are always the part that overheats in a sweater. These sleeves let the air in.

A sweater is a whole-body decision, and the body is rarely the problem. You are fine through the middle and then the arms are too warm, which is why so many of us end up pushing sleeves up to the elbow within twenty minutes and wearing a sweater that no longer looks like it was meant to be worn that way.

Adeline splits the difference by building the sleeves differently from the rest. The body is a solid knit that holds the warmth, while the sleeves are an open crochet-style weave with air moving through them, so the arms stay comfortable without you having to interfere. The V-neckline opens the front and lengthens the line of the neck, and the H-line regular fit drapes straight down rather than nipping in, so it layers over a collared shirt or works on its own.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• Warm body, breathing sleeves. The solid knit holds heat where you want it and the open weave releases it where you do not, so the sleeves stay down.
• The open work is also the decoration. The sleeve panels give it texture and interest without anything printed or stitched on.
• An H-line that falls straight. The fit drapes down rather than shaping at the waist, which is what makes it easy to layer over a shirt.
• Nine colors. Olive, apricot, purple and light blue alongside the navy and white, which is an unusual spread for a knit.

How it fits

Adeline is a regular fit and true to size, in S through 3XL. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, because the open sleeve panels stretch out of shape if they are worn tight. One thing to know before you order: this one is hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry, no machine, no dryer and no dry cleaning, which is the trade for the open knit.

A few recent reviews

I wear it over a collared shirt for church and the sleeves show the collar underneath.

Hand wash only, which I do not love, but it takes two minutes in the sink.

The apricot is soft and warm. I nearly ordered the white and I am glad I did not.
