I originally bought the multicolored one a size larger per the comments and I felt like I was swimming in it. I came back and reordered my regular size and it fits perfectly. I bought the purple combo one in a larger size and yes, it needed to be sized up. Both sweaters are cropped. the flap that folds over, does need to be worked out and it lays just like the picture. I normally wear 1XL. I bought the multicolored one in 1XL, fits perfectly as it should. The purple combo I bought in 2XL and it fits like 1XL, perfectly.

the colors are gorgeous and it fits pretty well but it already has a tear or the yarn has started unraveling in the back by the tag. unfortunately the person who made it is probably not paid enough at all for me to try and return it and get a replacement so ill just try and crochet it later just slightly irritating.
