Hi Pauline,

it could very well be orlon, which can appear similar to nylon in some things.

Orlon was developed in 1941 and the fibers don't melt like nylon does. It became a trademark name in the 50s.

This sweater is lovely...pink roses, pearls....so soft and feminine!

Yeah and I am surprised that after all these years there are no stains. I always thought this type of fabric stained with storage.

Oh and its still very white!
