To wear this sweater, simply put it on over your head like any other top. It goes great with jeans for a casual daytime look. When it comes to washing, use a gentle cycle in cold water to keep its shape and color. Don't bleach it as it may damage the fabric. Hang it to dry to avoid shrinking. You can iron it on a low setting if needed, but be careful around the multi - color trim. Store it folded in your closet to keep it in good condition.
