Dear Ms. Whitley:

One of the garments, a sleeveless pullover, manufactured from light-weight, woven fabric of 100% cotton, is further characterized by narrow, adjustable straps, a v-neckline, a straight-cut back, a pocket at each side of the lower portion of the front, and ties across the back. Sewn non-securely into each of the straps and into each of the armholes is the second of these garments, manufactured from knitted fabric of 100% cotton, a longer, sleeveless, scoop-necked garment that falls below the nape of the neck and that is seamed diagonally across the chest.
