The outer surface of the garment measures more than nine stitches per two centimeters in the direction in which the stitches were formed. The garment features two front panels that cross over one another to form a faux wrap effect. The garment also features sleeveless hemmed armholes and a hemmed bottom.

Your second sample, style 1093, is a woman’s pullover constructed from 100% cotton knit fabric. The outer surface of the garment measures more than nine stitches per two centimeters in the direction in which the stitches were formed.
