The outer surface of the garment measures more than nine stitches per two centimeters in the horizontal direction. The garment features a turndown collar, long hemmed sleeves, a full front opening with four button closures, two patch pockets, and a hemmed bottom.

Style 23212264 is a woman’s cardigan constructed from 87% polyester, 13% rayon knit fabric, which is napped on both sides. The outer surface of the garment measures more than nine stitches per two centimeters in the horizontal direction. The garment features a hood, long sleeves with turn-up cuffs, a full front opening with five button closures, and two inset pockets below the waist. The hood, sleeves, placket and bottom are finished with knit capping. The garment extends from the shoulder to the thigh area.

The applicable subheading for the cardigans will be 6110.30.3055, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests), and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: of man-made fibers: other: other: other: other: other: women’s.
