I think it works! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater/page/2#post-2159941 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 18:14:52 +0000 anchie 2159941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very apres ski look. Looks good but double check the itch factor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater/page/2#post-2159939 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 18:10:57 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2159939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops. I see that I mustve been looking at the content for a different item. Whatever it was had 95% merino and 5% yak. Might’ve been the dress Minaminu was looking at, I’m not sure. Glad you’re not wearing something that itchy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater/page/2#post-2159874 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 14:14:38 +0000 Anonymous 2159874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it on you, but concerned you thought it's a bit itchy.<br /> Agreed that yak yarn sounds very itchy<br /> Yaks don't look like they have soft fur! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159872 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 14:07:30 +0000 Janet 2159872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never seen yak yarn mentioned in any knit. It sounds itchy to me! </p> <p>It’s cold and rainy here today, I may need to test out this sweater with a thin layer underneath. Crossing fingers it’s not itchy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159844 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 10:41:35 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2159844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>About the itchiness..... I notice yak yarn turning up more frequently. Have you tried other items that have it? That fiber just SOUNDS itchy to me, but I have no basis for my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159812 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 05:12:51 +0000 Cee 2159812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thou wear it well, Janet :D</p> <p>...and seeing there's an itch factor, I'd definitely go with either a long sleeved tee or turtleneck underneath.&nbsp;</p> <p>Hell, even a cowlneck ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159803 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 04:08:26 +0000 Jenni NZ 2159803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks stunning! Colours will be great with your new puffer too- see how good they are with your phone case? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159798 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 03:51:51 +0000 Bijou 2159798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it, even the oversized fit is not too oversized - it looks like a fun and easy sweater to wear in perfect colours for you. The detail on the V-neck really draws the eye to your face and the V takes away any horizonal stripe widening effect (something I am always worried about in striped knits). With those jeans, your legs are a million miles long, absolutely no Sponge Bob associations at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159785 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 03:13:56 +0000 Suz 2159785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it. It's not your usual, but that's good. It will feel different, and give you that boost of "new" we sometimes need. Colours are great and V neck is great... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159779 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 02:58:14 +0000 Jaime 2159779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of the above. I would also try it with wider jeans and a semi-tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159772 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 02:20:20 +0000 Brooklyn 2159772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159762 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 01:29:58 +0000 Anonymous 2159762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this sweater with blue denim. The boxines does not bother me, but my eye has adjusted to it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159755 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 01:18:01 +0000 Janet 2159755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, that is a sweet combo. I want the fingerless gloves — I have a weird fondness for those. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159754 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 01:16:04 +0000 Janet 2159754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! I did actually semi tuck it while I was trying it on, but didn’t get a picture of that — it did seem to work. Perhaps it would work even better with a slightly lower rise jean. </p> <p>I bet this would look good with grey jeans. Or my soft black moto jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159749 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 00:39:06 +0000 Anonymous 2159749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh geez. Now I want the Sundance one and the cashmere neckerchief . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159747 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 00:36:36 +0000 Angie 2159747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What <b>Jenava </b>said. I love it on you! That V-neck -&nbsp;<i>on you -&nbsp;</i>is the magical touch.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159746 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 00:35:22 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2159746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny, I saw the dropped shoulders (which don’t work on me) and thought “now *there* is someone who can wear them”. I don’t think it’s too boxy either, like the way you have it on better than the model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159742 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 00:29:57 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2159742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it on you. I feel like the semi-tuck would be tricky with the pattern, tho. </p> <p>I’m not a fair isle person but the drop shoulder and the v neck<br /> are a duo-fecta in my world. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madewell-fair-isle-sweater#post-2159741 Mon, 14 Dec 2020 00:24:16 +0000 Janet 2159741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AndiB, I saw that one too. I do like it but I am more drawn to the less traditional pattern and the V neck on the Madewell. But that PC one is really cute — nice color combinations, and they remind me of a favorite sweater I had back in high school, in a good way! </p>
