I need a thick soft super longline cardigan

Basically a dressing gown alternative for home so I don’t look like such a hobo.

Where do I find such a thing?

Monsoon was always good for these, not sure if it's shut down.

I bought one from hobbs last year which is still going well.

Was a nice dressing gown sort in Next the other day if you're not precious about fabrics.

Love this one from Mango

I got a long warm cardi from Fat Face last year. No wool, so no itchiness, and easy to sling on and off. A quick Google tells me they have long cardis this year too.

I got one from Phase Eight, via a charity shop.

GettingStuffed · 10/01/2023 23:15

I bought one in Primark just before Christmas

Rina66 · 10/01/2023 23:38

Or this from Boohoo for £26? There's lots of balloon sleeve slouchy cardigans around.

H&M did various lengths this winter and they’re very soft and cosy - there might be a few left in the sale

SweetSakura · 10/01/2023 23:53

Yes this is what I need! I live in my dressing gown!

LemonSwan · 11/01/2023 00:15

I looked in h and m and next today but they are all too thin! Or the ones left anyway. Maybe I have missed it as we are coming into spring 🤦‍♀️

Love the mango one but that’s a coat so looks a bit rigid. I want to be able to sofa slouch in it.

The boohoo one might work and good price!

Ahh the phase eight ones look perfect but £100 and not sure I can justify that for black which does wash me out 😬

George at Asda has several nice ones. Range ftom £14 - £20 so won't break the bank.

Get on Vinted- I have a lovely alpaca/wool/mohair one that goes to my ankles

Mother87 · 11/01/2023 01:24

Just got exactly that from HUSH supersoft

I was going to suggest Asda too. My favourite long warm cardigan came from there.

Mother87 · 11/01/2023 01:26

Sorry couldn't do short link - got the grey and green, they're so soft, drapey and wash well

LemonSwan · 13/01/2023 20:34

Hmm so I bought quite a few in the sale at boohoo and it was a disaster quality wise 🤦‍♀️

Such a shame as they would have been just perfect in colour and shape, but just scratchy and not nice. Can tell they won’t wash well either.

So back to square one again.

I really want this one: www.celticandco.com/womens/clothing/cardigans/felted-longline-cardigan?colourid=413

Rina66 · 13/01/2023 20:48

Oh that's such a shame @LemonSwan, I am sorry. I wonder why some acrylic is so soft and slouchy while others are not? It makes shopping online very difficult.

Second phase eight - can pick up on eBay sometimes or lots of 20% discounts

watcherintherye · 13/01/2023 21:04

What you need is a coatigan! I have two I bought a couple of years ago and they’re lovely! Just did a quick Google and seem to be loads available.

No don’t apologise! They were going to be just PERFECT. It was exactly what I wanted. I was so so excited. But sadly just didn’t work out.

And no loss as I will just return and continue the search. Was good too as now understand I do want extra long, and I do want pockets.

Tescos had them last year, soft, good thickness, knee length, wash well, lovely. Bloody miracle for the price! Haven’t looked this year but worth a try?

TwoMonthsOff · 13/01/2023 21:38

This one is very pretty
