The details

This best-selling women's cardigan is great for transitional weather. The ultra-soft knit features two front pockets and is cut at a longer length, hovering mid-thigh.

The open-front cardigan pairs well with jeans or leggings for an easy home-to-office look and is available in 17 colours and prints, including red, leopard print, and floral.

The lightweight knit can be purchased in sizes small to XL and won't wrinkle.

'Perfect layering piece for fall weather'

Shoppers praise the open-front cardigan as "very comfortable" and say its material is "very soft."

It's the "perfect layering piece for fall weather," according to one reviewer. It's "lightweight and soft," they write; "[I've] already ordered a second!"

The cardigan is "very flattering," reports another Amazon shopper. It's "nice and long," and "I've received many compliments [while] wearing it."

'Home run!'

A third reviewer calls the open-front knit a "home run!" This cardigan is "perfect," they write. The material is "very light," so it's "nice" for transitional weather when the "temps are cooling off."

Despite earning nearly 1,500 reviews and an average rating of 4.5 stars, some shoppers say the Qixing cardigan is too light to keep warm.

It's "not sweater-weight," writes one user. They say the fabric is "more like a lightweight T-shirt" than a cozy sweater.

The verdict

With cooler weather on the horizon, there's no better time to pick up a cute knit for fall — especially one with more than 1,100 five-star reviews to back it up. While many Amazon shoppers say this open-front cardigan is flattering and stylish and praise its soft, lightweight fabric, some say it's too light to keep you warm, something to keep in mind when shopping for Canadian weather.
