Women's Cotton Crewneck Sweaters
Under a jacket, over a tee, on its own — a crew neck gets worn harder than anything else in your closet, which is why the cotton one has to hold up. Ours are 100% Supima, a longer-staple fiber that spins into a stronger yarn, so it holds its shape at the shoulders. Wear one when cashmere's too warm for the day.

Most sweaters are built for cold. A cotton crew neck is built for the rest of the year — the weight you can wear indoors without overheating, over a tee in April, on its own on a cool evening in July.
Longer fiber, less pilling
These are knit from Supima cotton, an extra-long-staple cotton grown in the US. The longer fiber is the whole point: it spins into a stronger yarn, which means less pilling at the sides and cuffs, and a sweater that holds its shape at the shoulders instead of going slack. It softens as you wear it rather than thinning out.
Layer it, or let it be the sweater
The weights run in a couple of directions. The lighter, fine-gauge knits are cut to layer — over a tee, under a jacket — and they run large, so most people size down. The heavier ones are worked in a fisherman rib, the shaker stitch that gives it that ridged surface, and read closer to a true autumn sweater. Necklines sit at the base of the throat throughout: a rolled edge over a ribbed band on the lighter knits, plain ribbed trim on the fisherman rib.
Want the same neckline in a warmer fiber? The cashmere crewnecks are next door, or see both together at crewneck sweaters. For more cotton, browse 100% cotton, cotton cardigans and cotton hoodies.
Dry cleaning keeps them longest
We recommend dry cleaning. If you'd rather wash at home, cold water on a gentle cycle and a flat dry will do it — but skip the dryer, which is what shrinks cotton knits and shortens the body. Fold rather than hang so the shoulders keep their line. Not the right fit? Exchanges and store credit are easy within 21 days — see our Return & Refund Policy.
