| J. Crew Factory has a classic cotton sweater that I wear to work regularly. |

+1 I have a bunch of COS sweaters purchased maybe 7 years ago in Europe and they have not pilled at all. |

This is OP, thanks for the replies. I cannot wear wool, not even cashmere. Looking for cotton or synthetic.
I hadn't looked at Nordstrom and they have some possibilities. BR is all rolled hems this season, which is too casual (and unflattering). I have some plain v-neck sweaters from the BR outlet and they are ok but pretty thin. Lands End used to make a nice cotton pullover but no longer does. Sometimes I find them on eBay. AT and Loft have nothing, nor does Talbots. |

| Ralph Lauren $168 for nice cotton sweaters if that isn’t too high |

If you're asking for sweater recommendations it's a glaring omission to leave out that you're allergic to all wool. Anyhow, I've had good luck with Boden sweaters. The linked one has a bit of detail at the neck but I'd still consider it basic. https://us.boden.com/products/emilia-cotton-crew-sweater-warm-ivory |

Quince also does cotton OP. Haven't tried it because I'm too obsessed with these:
https://factory.jcrew.com/p/womens/categories/clothing/sweaters/cotton-sweaters/cotton-teddie-sweater/CF165?display=standard&fit=Classic&color_name=hthr-blueprint&colorProductCode=CF165 The do pill after a year or so of steady wear, but they'll biodegrade and they don't cost too much to begin with. |

Here are a couple from LL Bean that are very basic and lightweight. https://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/129781?page=womens-wicked-soft-cotton/cashmere-crewneck-sweater-womens-regular&bc=12-27-611&feat=611-GN3&csp=f&attrValue_0=459&gnrefine=1*MATERIAL*Cotton&pos=4 https://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/129320?page=womens-cotton/cashmere-sweater-polo-womens-plus&bc=12-27-611&feat=611-GN3&csp=f&attrValue_0=37948&gnrefine=1*MATERIAL*Cotton&pos=5 |

Not sure where you've been looking, but basic, cotton sweaters in solid colors are everywhere. Here's just one that I like.

Organic cotton, too casual? https://wearpact.com/women/apparel/sweaters?filters=sleeve-length%3Dlong%257Csleeve

Quince cashmere sweaters are cheap about-to-pill trash. |
