A proper chunky cable cardigan is a winter staple that never really dates — the kind you throw on over a shirt or a tee and end up wearing all season. Ours is a mid-grey with a shawl collar you can wear up around the neck or folded open, knitted in Italy on a chunky gauge with cable and textured panels running through the body and sleeves, finished with ribbed cuffs and hem and matt buttons down the front.
It's knitted from a blend of 40% Better Cotton Initiative cotton and 60% recycled content — a mix of offcuts from weaving and knitting mills, post-consumer clothing, and recycled plastic bottles, all spun back into yarn rather than thrown out. It gives the cardigan real weight and substance. The buttons are matt-finish, made from recycled compressed paper and resin.
Grey is the easy neutral — it sits against everything. Wear it over a shirt with jeans or cords and boots, collar up on the cold days, or open over a tee for something more relaxed. The shawl collar dresses it up or down depending on how you wear it, so it works as the warm layer you reach for whether you're heading out or staying in.
