Help me find an arse-covering cardi with a collar or hood.

Has anyone seen something suitable please?
I'm 5 foot 4 and a size 14. My arse has recently decided to migrate down the back of my legs. While I work on that, I need a cardi or similar that will fall to mid thigh so I can wear it over trousers/jeans. I have narrow quite rounded shoulders so a collar or hood balances me out, otherwise I look a bit humpy. Cashmere weight or heavier is better and I like a cable knit.
I tried this but it was way too long and needed structure in the shoulders

Navy is best but black will do.

Also an inset sleeve rather than a raglan sleeve looks ok enough not to need a collar or hood.

Those are lovely thank you and within
budget if the quality is good. I can go up to £200 maximum if I find the perfect one.

That's lovely too and you've both sent me off to websites I wouldn't think of as my default is high street stores so thanks very much 😊
