Anverth - Button Front Knit Cardigan with Ribbed Trim
Anverth - Button Front Knit Cardigan with Ribbed Trim
A button front cardigan in a mid gauge cotton blend, with a ribbed placket, two patch pockets and a plain round neck.
A cardigan does one thing a sweater cannot, which is come off without going over the head. Anyone who has taken a sweater off in a car park with a scarf still on understands the appeal.
Why this cardigan?
- Ribbed placket: the button band is knitted in a firm rib and stitched with a facing, so it hangs straight instead of curling forward.
- Two patch pockets: the pockets are sewn on rather than set into the knit, which stops the front dragging out of shape over time.
- Plain round neck: the neckline is left unstructured, so a shirt collar sits over it without being pushed up.
- Corozo buttons: a hard nut button rather than plastic, sewn with a shank so the placket lies flat when it is fastened.
- Mid gauge knit: close enough to wear under a jacket, open enough to work as the outer layer on a mild day.
Ideal for:
Men who take a layer off and put it back on several times a day, and who would rather that layer had pockets. It works at a desk, over a shirt, and as the thing kept on the back of a chair.
How many buttons?
Six down the front, spaced to keep the placket flat and to allow the cardigan to be worn open without gaping.
Does it fit over a shirt?
Yes, it is cut with room across the chest for a shirt underneath without pulling at the button band.
Will the pockets sag?
They are patch pockets, bar-tacked at both top corners, which is the join that takes the strain when something heavy goes in.
