- Neckline

- Head opening
- Stretchy ribbed neck that pulls on easily Tight necks lead to tantrums and stretched-out collars.
- Knit density
- Tight, even gauge with no see-through areas when stretched Dense knits pill and snag far less.
- Fiber
- Cotton or soft merino over coarse wool or thin acrylic These balance comfort, warmth and wash durability.
