The fabric to this sweater is a typical knit weight. The dying process made it a bit stiff but I think it will soften up as you wash it.
Fit advise: I typically wear a 1X and found the 1X/2X to be a bit too oversized. Id advise to size to the smaller end. Example if you typically wear a 2X stick to the 1X/2X
