It qualifies under HTS 6114.90.05.40 as an other knitted garment of fine animal hair, not a full-coverage shirt or ensemble component. Short length and open-front design exclude it from suit or blouse headings.

• Test for shrinkage per AATCC standards; non-compliant wool knits may face quality holds
