    Cardigan I tried on in store from this season: 57% acrylic, 32% polyester, 8% wool, 3% elastane.

    Cardigan I saw on Marketplace potentially from last season: 60% acrylic, 30% nylon, 8% wool, 2% elastane.

    Chat says the Marketplace one would be softer but the in store one would be more durable because of the polyester?

      There’s no way to know without feeling them. Both synthetic and natural fibers come in different grades, eg fine wool vs coarse wool. Also what is the knit or weave like, it affects the feel and drape. Just go with the one you like the colour and style of, because that’s the one you’ll get the most enjoyment out of.
