I would love to find a cardigan that comes past my bum. I’m short. Needs to be plain but happy with a pattern in the knit.
Prefer jewel colours so definitely not khaki or mustard.
I can only find thinner style ones and I have lots of them already.
I’d like it to be cozy but not frumpy.
Does this exist.
Please help me. 🙏🏻

What do you think to red?

I just bought this: Celtic and Co

It does look a bit frumpy styled there but I've been wearing with some chunky boots and dresses.

That is gorgeous hammering. it is a bit expensive for me though, unfortunately.

I've got this one from Next in grey but comes in purple too, £28 and its the perfect Autumn cardigan weight, really cosy and not frumpy Smile

You know I saw some nice ones in primark this week. £13 - bright colours, no buttons though- it was about hip length on my and I'm 5 9

Gwenhwyfar · 06/10/2018 08:41

Anyone got any ideas for a shorter length one that I could wear to work and still look quite smart. Needs to be quite thick and keep me warm, but fit in with workwear.

Ihatethecold. I have two cardies from Fenn Wright Manson. Both nice and long and super warm (angora and cashmere mix)

I can't afford them brand new so got them from EBay. It might be worth a look.

Wow, thank you @hammeringinmyhead !

I hadn't ever stumbled on that brand before and I have now fallen in love 😍

Do you have anything else from them? I am tempted by both the kilt skirt and the Henley knit dress.

Just seen Celtic & Co code W18GH gets 15% off and free delivery until 6 Nov. (On their ad in the Guardian magazine today)

PastaRedWine · 06/10/2018 14:39

Dammit. I found a 10% off one and ordered with that.

Thank you though for the 15% one. Hopefully it'll help someone else!!
