Will I ever be reunited with my beloved cardigan

Out on holiday today near UK beach and my partner was carrying my cardigan for me. It never made it home with us :(

I am trying to hide it for their sake a bit but I’m absolutely devastated. It was a comfort blanket for me, worn nearly every day. Without it I don’t know what to wear!

It was a chunky black cardigan and VERY soft - almost a velvety type of wool? I’m not sure what it’s called, maybe chenille? It would help if anyone knows. Very thick and heavy so I felt comforted whenever it was on.

I am pretty sure it was from Peacocks, though at a push could have been H&M/new look. I’m pretty sure it was Peacocks though. Bought it in 2018/19.

Does ANYONE know of anything similar I could buy as a replacement?

I know this might sound silly to some, but I was just so attached to it.

This happed to me, at madeira Airport we had a 5 hour delay, so at this airport you go upstairs outside to watch the planes land, I sat for a while on my cardigan, when I got up and walked inside I realised I'd left it on the ground, I went straight back only 2 to 3 minutes later, someone had taken it.

How horrible :( so sorry to hear this! And from others that have had this - it’s really terrible!!! Honestly was up all night because of it - I’m one of the lucky ones obviously!

@lindyloo57 - did you mix-read @Al991’s post? I can’t see anything not nice in it. She was sympathising with you?

Still in mourning for butter yellow cashmere cardigan, dropped in the street in Islington in 1994…

So glad you found it! I left my perfect green velvet jacket on an aeroplane in 2010 and I’m still not over it, even though it wouldn’t even fit now!
