Lightweight Fall Cardigan Sweaters for Women

We knit this lightweight layer with a brushed surface that feels soft directly against the skin. The cut runs straight through the body with enough give to sit smoothly over a thin tee or tank. Gold-tone engraved buttons close the V-neck front down to a hip-length hem.

What we would tell you in the studio

  • Brushed fine gauge. The yarn is knit into a fine gauge with a peached finish across the face. It gives the black knit a soft hand and a gentle mechanical stretch that recovers its shape across a full day.
  • V-neck and button closure. An open V-neckline leads into a central placket secured by engraved gold buttons. You can fasten it completely or leave it undone over a woven slip dress or an open collar.
  • Straight hip-length cut. The body is cut straight from the underarm to the hem, neither clinging to the waist nor billowing out. It rests right around the hip line, creating a clean profile over trousers and denim.
  • Cold wash and flat dry. Wash this piece on a cold cycle or by hand to preserve the brushed texture of the yarn. Lay it flat away from direct heat to dry so the knit retains its original length and button alignment.

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.
  • Read the size chart on the partner page 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.
