Looking for a sweater like this

I am looking for a sweater like this, white, open stitch, high cotton content, boat neck... what I don't like about this particular one is the cuffs on the sleeves and the waist. I don't know if that's the right name for it but I'd like the sleeves and the waist to just flow, not gather. This one's also a little pricey. Would love some recommendations around the £50 mark please. It does need to have a high cotton content.

I'm not sure what you mean with the gathering, do you mean the ribbing on the cuffs and hem?

Is this any better Vila? 100% cotton and approximately half the price.

Would this fit the bill OP?.

@botemp, that's it! ribbing!! The Vila one also has ribbing unfortunately. Thanks though!
@MrsWidgerysLodger, thanks, that one's closer to what I want although shame that it's not white, and I suspect the sleeves will be v long on me.

Do you know anyone who can knit? Then you can get exactly what you want.

Are these the fort of jumpers? I did a search for ‘cream crochet ‘ or ‘’pontelle’ jumpers.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I've ended up trying on a whole bunch of them and actually they don't look good on me. My boobs look all wrong. I don't think I'll be getting one of these after all.
