Nipped Waist Button Front Knit Cardigan

Shaped seams draw this cardigan in at the waist and release it slightly over the hip, giving a soft hourglass line that a straight knit never manages. A neat round neck, a row of tonal buttons and two low pockets keep the styling deliberately plain so the shape does the work. The knit is dense and smooth with ribbing at the cuffs, and the sleeves are cut long and slightly full. Wear it buttoned as a top over a pleated skirt or open across tailored trousers. Cream, warm taupe and black all read expensive against simple basics.
