Your sample, style ST9084, is a woman’s cardigan constructed from two fabrics.

The back panel and long sleeves are constructed from 100% cotton 2x2 rib knit fabric. The garment features a hood, long hemmed sleeves, a full front zippered open, kangaroo pockets and a banded bottom.

The essential character of the cardigan is given by the 100% polyester knit fabric of the front panels, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), General Rules of Interpretation (GRI), Rule 3 (b), noted.
