I'm after a boxy chunky/tape knit jumper thing that's oversize so I can wear a longsleeve contrast colour layer underneath.

Sort of a cross between a tank top (but must cover upper arms) and a chunky knit - but looser.

I can't seem to magic a description of this thing up from google to obtain!

Halp please! :)

If you search 'short sleeved poncho' you might get something, it seems to bring up some stuff that isn't necessarily what I'd consider a poncho, but more what you describe.

A tabard?

Do you mean this kind of thing?
There are very few of them around these days.

Do you mean a long sleeved chunky crop top? They were popular in the 90s

Well I just donated one to charity Grin

I called it a crochet short sleeve jumper in my ebay advert, no one bought it though. It was this one www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Papaya-crochet-cropped-jumper-sunflower-yellow-size-12/273539576368

Oh you lovely S&B geniuses!

@DoctorNicoleWatterson short sleeve poncho is very much nearly it, ideally a bit more texture, but, thanks!

@MoltonSilver I was a bit scared of the word tabard, a bit nativity play, but that jigsaw number is pretty close.

@ChicagoLil hmm not quite, loose/flowing and longer and short sleeve. I'm too old for crop tops I think (although obvs I'd wear summat underneath :))

@LifeofClimb ooh I'd have bought that if I was thinner!
