A beautiful pull

Doing some revision and this lesson has had me in knots.

Can somebody confirm or correct me please

Tu aimes mon pull ? -Oui, il est très beau

Does this get to the point?

Tu aimes mon pull ? -Oui, c'est un très beau pull...?

Hi Mark, 

If someone asks you -

Tu aimes mon pull ? Do you like my sweater?

You can say either -

Oui, il est très beau. = Yes, it is very beautiful.

or

Oui, c'est un très beau pull. Yes, it's a very beautiful sweater. 

Just two ways of saying the same thing.

Hope this helps!

Hi Mark,

As I see it -- To write "Tu aimes mon pull ?" is quite specific, therefore the response "Oui, Il est très beau" gives a specific response to a specific question.

I suppose that "Oui, c'est un très beau pull" is probably acceptable in normal speech but may not give the "correct answer" in a quiz.

Hope this helps.
