Cardigan Sweaters For Women

We knit this button-down layer with a generous cut through the chest and shoulders so the fabric falls away from the body rather than clinging. The black yarn gives the plain knit surface a clean finish that works over basic tees or bare skin. The hem stops short, balancing the loose width of the body.

What we would tell you in the studio

  • Deep neck line. The front opens into a wide V that fastens with front buttons. It sits low enough to leave collars and base layers visible underneath, resting flat against the chest without bunching up when buttoned.
  • Roomy cropped cut. We gave this piece extra width across the body and dropped the hem to a shorter length. The extra slack lets the knit hang straight down from the shoulders, creating an easy, slouchy drape through the torso.
  • Black knit yarn. The solid black dye gives the stitch pattern a uniform texture with a smooth, soft hand against bare arms. It provides moderate warmth without heavy bulk, keeping the layer lightweight through changing temperatures.
  • Washing and care. Hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent to keep the knit shape intact. If you choose the machine, use a cold gentle cycle without bleach, then press out excess water and lay it flat to dry.

Living with this one

Do

  • Wash cold and on the gentle cycle, or by hand if the yarn feels loose.
  • Dry it flat, in shape, away from the radiator.
  • Fold it on the shelf rather than hanging it by the shoulders.
  • Measure a jumper you already like and compare it before you settle on a size.

Skip

  • Bleach and fabric softener, both of them flatten the surface.
  • The hot tumble dryer, which is how knit becomes one size smaller.
  • Hangers with thin shoulders, they leave two points that never come out.
  • Ironing directly on the face of the knit.
