Test the knit’s stretch and recovery; if it's too stiff, it can feel restrictive, while too loose may sag after wear.

Both scenarios work, but priorities differ. For home lounging, prioritize softness and easy care. For outdoor layering, seek thicker knit, better warmth retention, and a fit that layers smoothly. A beginner may prefer true-to-size ease and forgiving fabric, while a seasoned shopper may want consistent sizing across seasons.
