……………………………The VERY POPULAR ELONGATED OPEN FRONT CARDIGAN, A287608, has been REORDERED due to popular demand, and I couldn’t be more delighted…..It is made in my medium weight ENR Whisper Knit. It has a 3/4 sleeve, pockets and an open band front. It also has great side slits for a sweeping effect.. I think the length is perfect, because it works for any height woman. This is not a super long floor grazing cardigan. For most it will come to the top of the calf. Of course there are always some petites who will find it long, but I would disagree. It really depends what you are comfortable with. Maybe you should give it a try…..I think the cardigan is very versatile. Wear it over any type bottom, Linea White Jeans, A304733, as above, Capri, crop and even shorts will work perfectly. Wear it over you favorite pencil skirt, maybe a sleeveless dress that has been hanging in your closet waiting for just the right piece to wear over it……The cardigan will look great over most of your WK sweaters especially the mock neck sleeveless tunic, A343029, now on clearance….perfect in black…..A287609, the tank tunic originally designed to go with this cardigan, and so many more…….The color is SAPPHIRE………..a very vivid blue. Actually, I had requests for this blue and I think it came out great…………………The coordinating SCOOP NECK ELBOW SLEEVE SWEATER, A347450. This is a classic piece and will quickly become an ESSENTIAL……This knit has a lot of stretch so if you have found that you need to size down, than this style would be no exception. I don’t think one size down will hurt especially if you have narrow shoulders as this has a wide scoop neck [not too deep, but not a ballet neck]. The XXS is approx. 24 inches long……………………I love the FANTASY FISH in the RED and BLUE worn with the Sapphire……a more subtle way to wear red, white and blue. The GOLD HOOP above is now avail. in CLIP BACK only, and it is part of the CLASSIC GROUP, but the GOLD in the EXOTIC GROUP works just as well……………ATTENTION!!!! I am posting these sneak peeks because these are styles that have shipped to QVC for Jan….BUT……..I have no idea what styles will be scripted for my Jan show…….Some may go into Feb so don’t be disappointed if they are not on mt Jan. 17th show…This is just to let you know what’s coming!…………………………….enjoy……………………much Love………………………….Louis
Louis, will the blue long cardigan go with the new v-neck in blue?
Yes…both sapphires work well even if they are different yarns
Happy New Year dear Louis! Belated thanks for all the wonderous selections offered in 2018 in various shades of Purple and lovely riffs on Teal, Dark Green with a Blue tinged… Loving the richness of Sapphire Blue and was wondering if I might combine it with A302561 Faux Wrap Printed Midi Skirt? XO
Dear Casey……First I thought the sweater would be too bright for the skirt…..but….then I went to my studio and put the two pieces on the form [the new V-neck which is the same color]. To my surprise I liked it a lot. The skirt is definitely a darker blue but there are areas where the lines are very fine that the blue appears lighter, so I think they work well together. I tried it on with the blue seed bead necklace and the blue and fire ball tuxedo necklace and both looked great. These would definitely offer you another way to wear your skirt!
Thanks very much for checking this combination! XO
I am excited as I have been looking for the 3/4 quarter sleeve top from you. It will be a basic. I hope it does well so it will be reordered in other colors.
Dear Carol….this is the second reorder. It was originally in ivory, black, red….then perfectly pink and navy were added.
LOVE this sweater set, Louis! That sapphire is gorgeous!!!! I have this cardigan and matching tank in ivory, black and navy and it’s a well-worn favorite. Now, with the addition of the elbow sleeve sweater, I’m thrilled with the “coverage” and versatility it offers. You really do listen to customer requests and we are all so grateful. We are off to a great new Linea season š
Louis, I hope this new year brings you joys, smiles, love, and comfort. Iām so ready for this myself and what a joy to look at all the lovely, colorful things you have made for us! Thank you, thank you for bringing the elbow sleeve scoop neck sweater back! I LOVE this top and I have worn your last elbow sleeve scoop neck waist-whittling sweaters constantly in the spring/summer and need more colors. It was my first purchase and I fell in love with Linea immediately. The silhouette is just so feminine and one that I find very flattering on.
The sapphire is a lovely, lovely blue and is one of my favorite colors. Of course, I am so excited to add a new ivory and to finally have black.
I hope you have a lovely, cozy, and light filled day today. The sun is shining here this morning and hope it is by you too. Hugs and love!
Dear Karen we deserve to have a peaceful 2019! I hope only good things are in store for both of us…..It is a sunny day here too. I even think I can detect a little longer day!
Thank you Louis.
Yes, lots of peace and good things….
