It closes with coconut buttons down the front and pairs well over a long-sleeve tee for added warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is made from 100% organic cotton knit by GOTS-certified manufacturing partners in Portugal and India. To keep the knit looking its best, hand washing in cold water is recommended; if machine washing, use a garment bag or delicate cycle, and always lay the cardigan flat to dry rather than hanging it, since hanging can stretch the knit over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with other chunky knits, small threads may occasionally come through near the seams, which is a normal part of the knit's texture; a loose thread can be gently guided back through to the inside of the garment rather than cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% organic cotton knit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoconut buttons down the front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelaxed, slouchy fit for layering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Portugal and India by GOTS-certified partners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGOTS and OEKO-TEX certified manufacturing partner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGOTS and Fairtrade certified manufacturing partner\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.
