FIVE GOLD BUTTONS
AND A GOOD MOOD

Most cardigans are there to keep you warm and not much else. Annabel does that beautifully, then adds a little something that makes you stand up straighter. It is the one you put on for coffee with a friend and end up wearing all afternoon, because it feels like a hug and looks like you made an effort. Jeans and boots are all it needs.

WHY THE ANNABEL?

Buttons worth noticing:Five generous gold tone buttons run down a slightly offset front, and they turn a simple knit into something quietly special. They catch the light every time you move.

A collar that frames your face:The neat pointed collar sits softly at the neckline, giving the whole cardigan a polished, almost tailored look. It is lovely on its own and lovelier with a fine necklace.

Sleeves with a little drama:Full lantern sleeves gather into close ribbed cuffs at the wrist, so they look generous without getting in the way at the sink or the stove.

Chunky, cosy and easy to wear:The thick knit has a lovely weight and a gentle stretch, and the relaxed cut skims rather than clings. It falls to the hip with a softly curved hem that flatters from every angle.

Twelve colours, sizes S to 5XL:Cream, Khaki, Brown, Grey, Black, Blue, Sky Blue, Green, Gold, Pink, Red and Wine, from calm neutrals to warm, cheerful shades. It is an oversized cut, so take your usual size, or one down for a closer fit.
