The composition of sweater is divided into: pure cotton, chemical fiber, wool and cashmere.
Cotton Sweater
Cotton sweater is soft and warm. It has better moisture absorption and softness, of which the moisture content is 8~10%. Cotton is a poor conductor of heat and electricity, which will not produce static electricity. It has the advantages of porosity and high elasticity. Cotton has no irritation or negative effect to skin. Cotton sweater is a good choice for keeping warmth.
Chemical Fiber Sweater
Chemical fiber yarn is shrink resistant. It has smooth hand feeling and high elasticity. It is easy to generate static electricity, which may cause skin dry and itchy. Chemical fiber fabric is made of chemical fiber by pure spinning, blending or intertexture, including acrylic fiber, spandex and polyester, etc. Chemical fiber fabric is low-cost, so it is more popular among young people. Chemical fiber fabric is light and soft, which is very fit on body. Chemical fiber fabric can keep form well and has bright color. But its warmth preservation is poor. And it may have irritating smell.
Wool Sweater
Wool is one of the best choices for sweater. Wool is fine, soft and elastic, which has good handle and good warmth preservation. Wool and alpaca blended sweater has better warmth retention property and hydrophilic property, but it is easy to fuzz and shrink.
Cashmere Sweater
Cashmere is very soft, warm and elastic. The warmth preservation of cashmere is 8 times of that of wool, while its weight is only 1/5. And Cashmere is much comfortable. Cashmere is one of the most comfortable, softest and warmest fabrics, which is suitable to wear in winter.
