The submitted sample was destroyed during laboratory analysis. Style YC1282 is a “Calvin Klein” label women’s pullover which you indicated is constructed of a 63% rayon 28% cotton 5% nylon 4% other jersey fabric. The outer surface of the fabric measures more than 9 stitches per 2 centimeters in the direction that the stitches were formed. The garment features a draped rounded front neckline with a rolled fabric edge, a high rear neckline with ribbed knit trim, and elbow length sleeves. The garment has a self-start 1 x 1 ribbed knit at the straight garment bottom and at the sleeve endings. The garment extends to below the waist.
