Knitted Cardigan With Pu Mixing

Two patch pockets in PU contrast the ribbed knit body - the material mix is the defining detail here, giving the cardigan an edge that a plain knit simply doesn't have. Viscose knit with a soft drape and cool handfeel that skims the body without clinging, sitting comfortably through the torso and falling cleanly at the hip. A deep shawl collar opens into a V that sits lower than a standard cardigan neckline, lending the silhouette a more considered, almost tailored feel. Ribbed detailing runs along the sleeves and cuffs, adding structure to the arms while the body remains smooth - a deliberate contrast within the knit itself. Button fastening through the front keeps the fit controlled; wear it open for a relaxed layer or closed to sharpen the silhouette entirely. The viscose moves with you - there's a lightness to it that heavier knitwear can't replicate, and the cool handfeel means it works just as well in transitional months as it does in the depths of winter. The PU pocket panels are what set this apart from a straightforward knit layer; they introduce a tactile contrast that makes the whole piece feel more intentional. As shown, it pairs convincingly with wide-leg leather-look trousers for an off-duty look that holds its shape without trying too hard. Equally, it works thrown over a silk slip dress for an evening out, or tucked into tailored trousers for a smart-casual office setting. The shawl collar means jewellery becomes optional - the neckline does enough on its own. Keep footwear sleek: pointed flats or heeled boots both serve the overall line well.
