I wore it properly, like a normal garment. It just looked cold. That was never the trick.
It's not for warmth
The arms — the part that actually gets cold — are left completely uncovered. That was never the point.
A layer held in reserve
Picked up mid-conversation, adjusted with one hand, taken off without fighting a sleeve.
Loose knit, real weight
A thin knit slides off the first time you turn your head. What holds its shape settles rather than slips.
Tied, not buttoned
Panels crossed loosely at the waist, or sleeves knotted low — a belt made of the cardigan itself.
Shop cardigans
Loose enough to drape, warm enough for when the evening actually asks for it.
