Cable Knit Zip Through Cardigan - burgundy

Raised bobble and cable detailing runs down the centre front - the kind of tactile texture that reads as genuinely considered knitwear rather than a plain layer. The funnel neck zips all the way up for a cosy, wind-blocking fit or sits open at the collar for a more relaxed look - two silhouettes in one piece. Wool in the blend brings natural breathability and insulation, holding the structure of the knit so it doesn't lose its shape over time. A cropped, boxy cut sits just at the hip and feels intentional rather than oversized - it layers without adding bulk. Ribbed cuffs and hem keep everything neat and stop the knit from stretching out at the edges with regular wear. The boxy crop is what makes this cardigan so easy to wear. It sits squarely on the shoulders and skims the hip rather than clinging to it, which means it works over almost anything - wide-leg jeans, a mini skirt, or joggers on a slow Sunday. The zip funnel neck is the detail that sets the pace: worn fully zipped, it looks sharp and structured; pulled halfway down, it settles into something much more laid-back. The model pairs it with light-wash jeans, which is exactly the right call - the contrast lets the texture of the cable knit do the talking. For a casual evening out, swap the jeans for a satin midi skirt and keep the zip three-quarters of the way up. It's the sort of knit that gets more wear the more you own it, because it genuinely goes with everything already in your wardrobe.
