…………..I have been teasing you on my previous appearances with sneak peaks of “stripe” sweaters….well….they have arrived. They are planned to be on my March second show, but I won’t know for sure until the final “script” of the show appears sometime at the end of next week……..so all of the sneak peaks I’m about to post….may or may not be on the next show….I never know……………………………………………………………..
A263356, is the style number of this cardigan. It is a WHISPER KNIT jersey sweater, and is approx. 27″ long. The sleeves are long with a 3″ solid rib border….so if you have short arms…no problem…just cuff them back. This is an easy sweater with a classic fit, so I see no need to size up or down. Of course if you like your clothes to fit you in a “special” way…..then you should look at the click here measurements, but as I said….your normal size should be fine. The cardigan has a classic V-neck with 6 Signature Linea buttons…..in this case….GOLD with the GRASS GREEN and NAVY. PLEASE pay attention to the photo at the lower RIGHT. It shows how well the stripes match at the side seam. I know for many of you this is a given, but this is a much more costly way to manufacturer a sweater. It would be much easier for the factories to just lay the patterns down and cut. When a garment has to be lined up not only in the front, but the back to the front…..it takes more time and more fabric…..This all goes into the price of the garment……… This cardigan fits into anyone’s lifestyle whether you work or are retired. With jeans and the BLUE KATE SHIRT, A214116 or a NAVY WK SKIRT, A253411, you can literally go anywhere………The SIGNATURE GOLD LINEA EARRING, J230884, is a natural. The design is different enough from the button, purposely so, so you don’t look too coordinated and matched……I know this is one cardigan you will enjoy………..much Love…………………….Louis
Olive is not my color, but this green is one of my favorite greens. Thank you for this color combination. I love this green with navy, which is one of my core colors. I have the blue “kate” shirt and plan to get this navy/green cardigan. Do you think when it is cooler weather like it is now that we could add the tsv ponte knit navy peplum blazer?
Absolutely….I’m not sure if the sweater will be longer than the jacket, but if that’s not an issue for you….they will look good together. For anyone that owns the new Hooded Ponte blazer…that would also be a great combo.
Thanks Louis, and I confess I also have the navy hooded ponte blazer, as well as the black, grey, and wine in that style. I really like that jacket. Its kinda like wearing a jacket to the office, but since I no longer go to the office, it works great for everyday. I also have your crepe navy jacket with your Linea gold buttons, as well as the ivory, aqua, and red! These work great for church or whatever. Anything you do in navy, red, ivory, or aqua gets my vote. I also like aubergine and hunter green and the new green! Thanks for all your great jackets and cardigans.
I love all of these cardigan color combos…I am in some serious trouble.
Perfection.
Good afternoon Louis,
Will there be any tops coming in the grass green color so that a ‘twin set’ can be created?
The green with the navy is lovely.
Regards,
Chris
No Chris….just navy
What wonderful color choices. I cannot wait to get them home.

Hello Louis, I am so glad you stopped teasing me with these new cardigans because now I have to have all of these too. So it started with all the swing sweaters and then all of the tunics and now all the cardigans. It looks like your on a roll and I can’t wait to see what else you are bringing us this season.
Dear me! Here comes “Budget Buster Louis” again. Swoon…
Well, You did it again!! All 4 combinations are so different from each other and coordinate with so many pieces we already have in our Linea collection. Here I go again! have to have all 4.. Love the color combinations; very interesting and metal button colors are perfect. Can’t wait to add these cardigans to my vast solid WK collection. I now have almost 200 of your WK’s and I honestly don’t know how that happened. I think over time you keep adding interesting designs and new colors and I love them all. I don’t let myself wear the same thing more than twice a month and that way I do wear what I purchase. Thanks again Louis…PS..My WK pants have paid for themselves this freezing winter (even in Ga). They are so comfortable and launder beautifully. Wear like iron. LOVE.
Dear HP….I know that sounds like a lot, and it certainly is a lot, but they will last a long long time and never go out of style…..When you have one for each day of the year….then we’re talkin’….LOL
