Women's fine-gauge knits are something we recommend time and again because they can be casual or smart, and they're the perfect in-between layer.

You probably know what a sweater is, but here is a bit of a summary just in case you don't.  A sweater which is a type of clothing, typically with long sleeves, made of knitted or crocheted material that covers the upper part of the body.  So, what is fine guage.

In knitting, the word gauge is used both in hand knitting and machine knitting; the latter, technical abbreviation GG, refers to "Knitting Machines" fineness size. In both cases, the term refers to the number of stitches per inch, not the size of the finished garment. In both cases, the gauge is measured by counting the number of stitches (in hand knitting) or the number of needles (on a knitting machine bed) over several inches then dividing by the number of inches in the width of the sample.  The gauge of a knitted fabric depends on the pattern of stitches in the fabric, the kind of yarn, the size of knitting needles, and the tension of the individual knitter (i.e., how much yarn they allow between stitches).

The "gauge" technically refers to the number of stitches per inch: the higher the number, the more stitches, which means the wool used must be thinner—and the resulting fabric lighter.

Fine-gauge knits are thin, lightweight sweaters.

Cotton is soft, absorbent and breathable.  The cotton fiber is often used to make ladies sweaters.  Learn the benefits of cotton on our fashion blog.
