This cardigan is knitted in a rich colourblock of black and warm brown with a wide rib collar and front bands in black that fall open with no fastening. Above the elbow, each sleeve carries a paisley style jacquard panel in cream and brown, a decorative counterpoint to the plain knit through the body. Three-quarter sleeves finish with a narrow cream stripe at the cuff, echoed again at the hem. The body falls straight through, giving an easy drape front to back.

If you love an open, layered silhouette, this cardigan will suit you especially well thrown over a simple top or dress. Add tall boots and statement boho style jewellery to let the paisley detailing shine, or wear it loose over a denim dress for an easy everyday layer.
