Extend your wardrobe with these attractive and practical sweaters.

Our cardigans help you extend your summer wardrobe into fall, your fall wardrobe into winter. Simply toss one of these great sweaters on over a sleeveless summer dress, and you can wear it right through October; a warm cardigan will also let you avoid hauling out that winter coat as long as possible.

Men looking for real outdoor use can select our North Atlantic Lined Wool-Blend style. This substantial double weight wool- and polyamide-blend shawl sweater is knitted in a traditional rib design, and lined with a soft brushed cotton plaid for added warmth; we add leather elbow patches and genuine horn buttons for authentic rustic appeal and longevity. These cardigans are handsome in either a brown mix or olive.

A great new sweater in a classic Shaker knit

Brand new this season, our Northern Lights wool cardigan, a classic Shaker rib knit, provides both warmth and optimum flexibility: unlike other sweaters, this sweater moves with you and won't bind or restrict movement. The rib cuffs and two-way zipper offer a great fit; this popular cardigan looks great in black, marine blue, or rust.

For women, our new Marled Fair Isle cardigans feature a classic Fair Isle pattern reinvented with super-soft marled yarns in shades of merlot, blue, and green; the acrylic and cotton blend is ideal for those who are allergic to wool. Design features include a rolled neckline, antiqued brass buttons, and ribbed cuffs and hemline.

Plush velour for the ultimate in comfort

Also new, our plush Velour Button-Front cardigan sweater is a perfect wardrobe solution for busy days. These versatile plush velour cardigans are extremely comfortable, soft, and machine washable, and can be dressed up or down as the occasion dictates - use them to take the chill off in the office, or for a brisk walk in the autumn sunlight. A flattering longer length, the velour cardigan, made of an ultra soft cotton and polyester blend, can be teamed up with the other velour separates or worn with a favorite skirt or jeans. Design elements include a simple crew neck with smoky pearlized buttons. Order one or more of these great sweaters in plum, chocolate, or provincial blue.
