Fashionistas on the lookout for value and softness have said Marks and Spencer's (M&S) £6 sweaters are "simply perfect". The jumpers are being compared to cashmere.
The high street retailer's jumpers are part of the brand's super soft range, which has been designed to both feel comfortable and look stylish. The cosy knitwear comes in 17 different colours - however, as the M&S' Supersoft Crew Neck Jumper range has been reduced down from £17.50 for some colourways, stocks are now low.
Eight colours are in the sale, with prices ranging upwards from £5.50. Nine colours remain at the £17.50 price point.

A hit with shoppers, fans say the items can easily be dressed up or down, and are a budget wardrobe staple they can wear for either work or play. The jumpers have been made from super soft cashmere-like fabric, and are designed to stay cosy and comfortable wash after wash, according to the retailer's website.
They are cut in a regular fit with a ribbed trim along the body and cuffs, and have been designed in a simple, versatile style that can be paired with almost any outfit. Listed in sizes six to 24, the crew necks come in a colour range of Petal Pink, Pale Pink, Bright Pink, Pink Cloud, Dark Pink, Bright Rose, Black, Bright Mauve, Lupin, Bright Purple, Chambray, Dark Blue, Turquoise, Navy, Spearmint, Dark Sage and Lime.
According to the Manchester Evening News, shoppers have been so blown away by the versatility and softness of the jumpers, and have splashed out on several different colours. Racking up more than 3,000 five-star reviews on the M&S website, one five-star reviewer wrote: "Beautiful and soft. Wears well with jeans and regular dress trousers." A second said: "It’s a simple classic design. Soft touch, and a lovely rich blue."
A third wrote: "Lovely, soft material. Jumper fits nicely and colour is nice. I bought one for my mum as a gift for Mother's Day and she loved it too." A fourth added: "Definitely super soft, not far off the feel of cashmere but a fraction of the price, lovely vibrant colours, I’ve got three now."
Somebody else said: "Lovely quality and good value fit is good and love the pink." "I bought this jumper for my mum and she was so pleased with it. The quality is fabulous and the range of colours is amazing - so much so she now has several different colours in her wardrobe. Simply perfect," said another five-star reviewer.
Some reviewers did point out that the jumpers can be a little too short in the body if you have a longer torso. This can be resolved by sizing up.
You can buy the super soft cashmere-like jumper starting from £5.50 on the M&S website. Similar super soft jumpers can be found for £11 on Matalan's website with a crew neck 'Boxy' jumper on New Look's website priced at £19.99.
