Lina Cardigan, Wine

The Lina Cardigan from Black Colour in Wine is a lovely soft brushed knitted cardigan in a considered wine-and-coloured-stripe palette — proper cosy winter knitwear with a small design lift. The sort of piece you throw on for warmth and comes back to for character.

Fabric-wise: 30% mohair, 40% acrylic, 30% polyamide. The mohair leads — a proper premium natural fibre from angora goats that gives the knit its soft brushed hand-feel, its warmth-without-weight, and that gentle halo you can see on the surface. The acrylic-polyamide blend behind it does the shape-retention and easy-care work.

The design:

• Brushed knitted construction — soft, tactile, proper considered winter warmth
• Coloured stripes on a Wine ground — quietly considered, plays with the whole warm-jewel autumn capsule
• Cardigan silhouette — throws over anything

Measurements: ½ chest 60cm, length 58cm.

How Hil wears hers: with her Toxik Alder Jeans in Black (wide-leg, high-waisted — one of her go-tos), layered over the Betty B Cloud LS Tee in Burgundy. The tonal burgundy-under-wine-stripe move is elevated-considered, with the black denim grounding it for daytime.

How Sue wears hers: with her Toxik Maya High-Waist Stretch Jeans (she wears them in both the Mid-Blue and the Indigo Blue — either works beautifully here), layered over the Faye Lurex Long-Sleeved Top in Rosebud. Finished with her ancient Russell & Bromley stacked olive boots — the head-to-toe warm-jewel considered autumn move.

Also plays with the whole warm-jewel winter capsule — Roll-Neck Asymmetric Knits in Burgundy and Claret, Perfect Tank in Burgundy, Barbara Blouse in Fig — and every autumn-toned neutral (Chocolate, Camel, Cream, Olive).
