Summer Cardigan

Todayisanewday75 · 2025-04-30T06:32:03+00:00

I had one from Jigsaw that I wore the life out of and I can’t find a suitable replacement. Looking for lightweight, mid length, short sleeved or sleeveless, or maybe even elbow length. Any suggestions?

Thanks they look nice but I was thinking a bit longer, bum covering length is probably a better description than mid length

I'm also on the lookout so will report back if I find anything.

I wish there was more mid length. I see a lot of boxy or short length or longline which is too much material for summer imo!

@Notknots the elusive summer cardigan!

I've recently got one of these in navy from John Lewis. There's not a huge amount of stock left now I see. But I liked the boyfriend style, good quality and I just wore it on a weekend away in warm Berlin and it was just right temperature wise:- https://www.johnlewis.com/pure-collection-boyfriend-fit-pure-cashmere-cardigan/black/p112529159?tmad=c&tmcampid=7&sshare=jlappios&size=16&&Y29tLmFwcGxlLlVJS2l0LmFjdGl2aXR5LkNvcHlUb1Bhc3RlYm9hcmQ=

It’s the sort of thing I sometimes want. Maybe this?

though the sleeves are a bit floppy and it’s probably a devil for catching on things.

I have one that looks very similar to this for work.
Except that it is cotton, not cashmere and it only cost £10 in the men's section of Primark 😅
It washes so well though and is my work cardigan so it has taken a thrashing.

Maybe a bit shorter than what you're after but I just ordered this in 2 colours:
