Lova Embellished Sweater

There was a huge pause when I took this sweater out. Though it is very soft per other reviews, the flowers are not embroidered unlike what the details and care states. It just threw me. I thought my eyes were failing, I kept turning the sweater this way and that, with "what the" running through my head. The flowers are printed on. In fact, there is shadowing on the knit that is not from the fibers of the yarn, but from screen-printed on shadows and shading. It's so odd. The pictures of the flowers are beautiful and the colors are just gorgeous. I just can't get past the flowers printed on for the price range, or I guess in general. This reminds me of the YouTube lady who buys AI products on Amazon and other sites, where it looks deceptively beaded or embroidered, but is actually wholly printed on fabric. I had a laugh at least and returned it.
