Batwing Sweater

A batwing sweater has deep, dropped sleeves that join the body in one wide piece, giving an easy drape through the arms. Shop women's knitwear listings that show sleeve inset photos, fabric content, and length from shoulder to hem. Regular set-in-sleeve pullovers will not give the same silhouette even if the yarn looks similar.

• Read whether the knit is acrylic, cotton, wool, or a blend and how it should be washed.
• Check bust and hem measurements because batwing volume can run wide through the torso.
• Confirm cropped, hip, or tunic length so the shape works with your bottoms.

Those measurements tell you if the batwing cut will sit the way the query suggests.
