Cropped length with wrist length sleeves.
Ribbed neckline, sleeve ends and wide sweater bottom. The 50s style ribbed sleeves cuffs are made to be folded up.
Does up the center front with flat dyed to match green buttons as pictured.
Both sides of the center front are backed with grosgrain ribbon for stability.

This sweater is "full-fashioned" meaning it was knit into shape, rather than being cut and sewn from a flat piece of knit fabric.
The color is a rich deep forest or spruce green.
