It closes with natural coconut buttons and pairs easily over a tee for cooler days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cardigan is knit from 100% organic cotton, made in India by GOTS-certified partners. Chunky cotton knits may occasionally show small loose threads near the seams as part of the knit's natural texture; if a loose thread appears, it can be gently guided back through the fabric with a pin or needle rather than cut, since cutting can cause the knit to unravel. For care, the chunky cotton knitwear should be machine washed cold on a delicate cycle, laid flat to dry, ironed on low if desired, and reshaped while still damp to help it hold its form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoose-knit design with a relaxed, slouchy fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished with natural coconut buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% organic cotton knit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGOTS-certified organic cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrustScore\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrustScore is Birch's proprietary rating, from 0 to 100, built from 50+ signals that reflect what actually matters to parents — safety, materials, recalls, certifications and quality.
