The Four-Season Layer

Made from a 50/50 cotton-polyester blend because gardening season doesn't respect comfortable temperatures. This heavyweight 8 oz sweatshirt is what you grab for dawn seed starting sessions, evening watering rounds, and those unpredictable spring days when it's 45° at 7am and 75° by noon. Air jet yarn resists pilling through countless wash cycles - because you're going to wear this approximately 200 times between October and April. Classic fit with 1x1 athletic rib knit collar, cuffs, and waistband that keep their shape through seasons of kneeling, reaching, lifting, and the occasional aggressive interaction with thorny rose bushes. This is your reach-for-it-without-thinking layer - practical, durable, and built for actual work.

Care & Feeding Instructions:

Washing:

• Machine wash cold (hot water shrinks things - and not just your ambitions for a weed-free garden)
• Turn inside out before washing (protect that design like you protect your heirloom seed collection)
• Use regular detergent, nothing fancy - this 50/50 blend is tougher than pure cotton but doesn't need special treatment
• Wash with like colors the first time - there might be a little dye release (like how your hands release dirt... eventually)
• Tumble dry low or hang dry (low heat = longer sweatshirt life = more seasons in your favorite layer)

Drying Instructions:

1. Tumble Dry Low: This blend handles the dryer better than pure cotton, but low heat is still your friend for preventing shrinkage
2. Remove Promptly: Don't leave it sitting in the dryer getting wrinkled - you've got seeds to start and beds to plan
3. Air Drying Works Too: Hang it up and let time do its thing (you're good at waiting - you're a gardener)

Additional Tips:

• Don't bleach it - bleach kills more than just stains
• No fabric softener needed - this blend stays plenty soft on its own
• If there's a graphic print, avoid ironing directly on the design. Use a pressing cloth or turn inside out
• This sweatshirt gets better with age, like compost and your gardening instincts

Treat it right and it'll last longer than your "this is the year I stay on top of weeding" promises.
