Nantucket Rollneck Sweater
The Nantucket Rollneck is a striped cotton rollneck sweater made in the USA: rollneck collar, relaxed fit, straight hem, 7-gauge 100% cotton jersey, Breton stripe. It is the Whalerknits piece for a coastal sweater with structure, ease, and visible stripe character. Like every Whalerknits sweater, it is guaranteed for life.
Why choose the Nantucket Rollneck
Choose this style if you want a cotton rollneck rather than a crewneck, a stripe rather than a solid, and a mid-weight jersey knit rather than the heavier feel of Wellfleet or the shaker texture of Newport. For a heavier rollneck, compare Wellfleet. For a shaker-knit crewneck, compare Newport.

A premium 100% cotton rollneck sweater praised for outstanding quality, soft fabric, and comfortable fit. Customers said it's "well-made" with "perfect weight." However, sizing runs large with some noting it's "too broad at shoulders" and "boxy." Color accuracy issues reported, particularly with red/dusty rose shades not matching photos. Highly valued for USA manufacturing.

The photo used to promote this sweater show a Christmas red, but the actual color used in the sweater shipped to me is a dusty rose shade. False representation!! The sweater is very lightweight. You’ll have to layer when wearing it.

Exactly as described, fantastic weave

Love. Perfect & exactly what i was looking for.

Medium is unfortunately too broad at the shoulders, boxy rectangle in shape. Great color, material and interesting collar, also a bit too large.
C
I enjoy my first order so much, I quickly ordered a 2nd. Great quality item, well built and fit is true.

This sweater is so beautiful- even better in person! I didn’t expect it to be so soft. I bought a size M for my husband (about 6 ft, 175lb) and it fits perfectly.

Amazing quality and a large fits like a large.

Very pretty sweater. Unfortunately, it runs a bit larger than I would have thought given the size chart(s). Wish I had ordered an XS or an XXS instead of an S.

The sweater is heavy weight, has a good feel to the fabric weave and is very comfortable to wear. I would recommend this particular item and the company for an outstanding USA made product. I will definitely order more items in the future.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received the sweater, that the fabric was a perfect weight (med weight). I love the sleeves and the bottom of the sweater and the rollneck is not bulky!

Sleeves too Broad, size is off.

I returned the sweeter. Although the quality and color was exactly what I was hoping, the cut is for a person with a much thicker waist area. It is too wide around the bottom of the sweater. Needs a tighter knit to fit me.

There were two immediate problems with the Nantucket Rollneck Sweater when it arrived.
One was the color. In the online version, the sweater was medium blue with gray-ish stripes. What I received was light, almost baby blue with conventional white stripes. What looked intriguing in the online version turned out to be bland an ordinary in the sweater itself.
The other problem was size. I ordered XL since I tend to be a bit stout in physique and prefer that size. This sweater's XL proved to be humongous, with the top of the sleeves hitting me at mid-bicep.
So these two problems, combined, led me to return the sweater for refund (which was well-handled by customer service, I should add).
In sum, the color of the sweater should be the same online and in-person. Plus, there should have been an online advisory that the sweater runs way large.
