Product description
The remaining garment portion after laboratory analysis is being returned to you. Style F24105 is a woman’s sweater which you have stated is constructed of 95% acrylic and 5% metallic knit fabric. The outer surface of the garment measures nine or fewer stitches per two centimeters counted in the horizontal direction. The garment features a scoop front neckline, short sleeves, and a straight garment bottom. Both the sleeve endings and straight garment bottom have 2 x 2 ribbed knit self start bottoms. The garment extends to below the waist. In order to classify this sample we sent it to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Laboratory to verify its fiber content and to analyze its yarn structure. The lab report was issued on October 9, 2012. The Laboratory has reported that the garment is constructed of two 2-ply staple acrylic yarns of four different colors (94.4% by weight) and a 2-ply metalized yarn (5.6% by weight) which are not twisted. The 2-ply metalized yarn is constructed of a single ply multifilament polyester yarn (64.9% by weight) twisted together with a single ply mylar-type metalized yarn (35.1% by weight). The garment has the following overall composition by weight: 94.4% staple acrylic, 3.6% multifilament polyester, and 2% mylar-type metalized knit fabric.
