Women's Crochet Trim Sweatshirt
We designed this sweatshirt to blend the relaxed comfort of your favorite fleece with unexpected handcrafted detail. The Universal Thread Women's Crochet Trim Sweatshirt features delicate crochet lace accents along the neckline and sleeves, adding a feminine touch to classic pullover comfort.
Our soft cotton-blend fleece feels broken-in from day one, while the crew neckline and dropped shoulders deliver an easy, relaxed fit. The crochet trim is sewn securely so it holds up through wear and washing, making this piece as practical as it is pretty. Pair it with denim or joggers for a look that works from coffee runs to casual weekends.

Fabric & Construction
We built this sweatshirt on a foundation of midweight cotton-poly fleece—60% cotton for breathability, 40% polyester for shape retention. The inside is lightly brushed, creating a soft hand feel without adding bulk.
The crochet trim is made from 100% cotton thread and individually sewn onto each garment. Unlike glued or fused details, ours are reinforced at stress points so they don’t fray or pull away over time. Each piece is inspected before it leaves our factory to ensure the trim lies flat and even.
Sizing & Fit
This sweatshirt runs true to size with a relaxed, slightly oversized silhouette. The dropped shoulder seam sits about an inch lower than a standard set-in sleeve, creating a casual drape without looking sloppy.
Length falls at high hip on most body types—approximately 24 inches from shoulder to hem in a size medium. If you prefer a closer fit, we recommend sizing down. For an even more relaxed look or extra layering room, go one size up. The fleece has minimal stretch, so fit is mostly determined by cut rather than fabric give.
Care Instructions
Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. The crochet trim holds up best when you turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing—this prevents snagging and keeps the thread looking crisp.
Tumble dry on low heat or lay flat to dry. High heat can cause the cotton trim to shrink slightly faster than the fleece body, so we stick to low settings. Iron on low if needed, avoiding direct contact with the crochet detail. We don’t recommend dry cleaning, as the solvents can weaken the cotton thread over time.

Common questions about the Crochet Trim Sweatshirt
Turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing and use a gentle cycle with cold water. This protects the crochet from snagging and keeps the cotton thread looking fresh. Tumble dry on low or lay flat to dry, and avoid high heat, which can cause the trim to shrink faster than the fleece body.
Minimal shrinkage is normal with the first wash, typically about half an inch in length. To minimize this, wash in cold water and tumble dry on low heat. After the initial wash, the garment holds its shape well. We pre-shrink the fleece during manufacturing, so you won't see significant changes after that first cycle.
We offer the Crochet Trim Sweatshirt in four seasonal colorways: oatmeal heather, charcoal gray, dusty rose, and cream. All colors feature natural cotton crochet trim that complements the fleece base. Color availability varies by size and season, so check the product page for current stock.
Not at all. The crochet is made from soft 100% cotton thread and sits flat against the fabric, so it doesn't rub or irritate skin. The trim is positioned along the neckline and cuffs where it's visible but doesn't create friction points. Most customers find it comfortable enough to wear against bare skin.
Yes, the midweight fleece breathes well enough for transitional seasons like spring and fall. The cotton content wicks moisture better than all-synthetic fleece, so it doesn't trap heat. It's ideal for cool mornings or air-conditioned spaces but may be too warm for outdoor wear in temperatures above 75°F.
This style has a relaxed fit with dropped shoulders, similar to our other casual pullovers. It's slightly more generous through the body than our fitted sweatshirts but less oversized than our boyfriend-cut styles. If you own other Universal Thread fleece pieces in your usual size, start there. The size chart on the product page includes exact measurements.
No. Each piece of crochet trim is reinforced at the edges and sewn securely at multiple points along the neckline and sleeves. We use a lock-stitch technique that prevents unraveling even if a single thread breaks. Our quality testing includes 50+ wash cycles to ensure the trim stays intact through regular use.
