Cable-Knit Button Down V-Neck Cardigan

How to measure

Use these steps to measure your body and the cardigan so you can choose the best size and fit. For the most accurate fit, compare your body measurements to the garment (laid-flat) measurements and allow for the recommended ease below.

Measure your body (wear a thin layer)

1. Bust — Measure around the fullest part of your chest with the tape parallel to the floor. Breathe normally.
2. Waist — Measure around the narrowest part of your waist (natural waistline), keeping the tape comfortably snug.
3. Hips — Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.
4. Shoulder width — Measure across the back from the edge of one shoulder to the other (shoulder bone to shoulder bone).
5. Sleeve length — With the arm relaxed, measure from the shoulder point (where the shoulder seam would sit) to the wrist.
6. Torso length — Measure from the base of the neck (at the spine) down to where you want the cardigan to end.

Measure the garment (laid flat)

Lay the cardigan flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles (don’t stretch). Measure straight across and multiply flat measurements by 2 to get circumference.

Fit guideline: allow about 1–2" (2–5 cm) of wearing ease for a close fit, 3–6" (8–15 cm) for a relaxed/ layered fit. If you prefer to layer bulky sweaters underneath, size up accordingly.

Materials & fabric information

The exact fiber content for this Cable-Knit Button Down V-Neck Cardigan appears on the product label and the product details on the site. Below are common materials used in cable-knit cardigans and what to expect from each:

• Cotton — Breathable, soft, comfortable and generally easy-care. May shrink slightly if washed in hot water.
• Wool / Merino — Warm and insulating with natural elasticity. Requires gentler care (hand wash cold or dry clean recommended for many wool items).
• Cashmere — Exceptionally soft and warm with a luxurious drape; delicate and usually hand wash or dry clean only.
• Acrylic — Lightweight, durable and easy-care; resists wrinkles but may pill over time.
• Viscose / Rayon — Soft with good drape; can be delicate when wet and may require gentle handling.
• Nylon / Polyester — Often blended in small amounts to add strength and shape retention.
• Elastane / Spandex — Small percentage adds stretch and recovery to the knit.

Common blends combine natural and synthetic fibers to balance warmth, softness and easy care (for example, cotton/acrylic or wool/nylon blends). Check the product details or garment label for the precise percentages to determine specific care and performance.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Follow the garment care label first. General recommendations for cable-knit cardigans:

• Washing — For most cotton/blend cardigans: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle inside out or hand wash. Use a mild detergent. For wool or cashmere: hand wash cold with a wool detergent or dry clean if recommended on the label.
• Protection — Turn the cardigan inside out and place in a mesh laundry bag to reduce friction and pilling when machine washing.
• Drying — Lay flat to dry on a clean towel, reshape while damp. Avoid wringing, hanging wet knits or tumble-drying (unless the care label specifically permits tumble-dry low).
• Ironing & steaming — If needed, steam or press on low heat with a cloth between iron and knit. Avoid high heat which can flatten textures or damage fibers.
• Pilling — Pilling is normal for many knits. Remove pills gently with a fabric shaver or pill comb. Wash inside out to reduce surface abrasion.
• Storage — Fold knits instead of hanging to avoid shoulder stretch. Store in a cool, dry place; use cedar or lavender sachets to deter moths for long-term storage.
• Spot care — Blot stains immediately with a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid aggressive rubbing which can distort the knit.

Style tips

Ways to wear and style this cable-knit V-neck cardigan:

• Casual everyday — Layer over a white tee or tank, tuck the front into high-waisted jeans, finish with sneakers or ankle boots.
• Work-ready — Wear over a crisp button-up shirt or a silk blouse; pair with tailored trousers or a pencil skirt and loafers or low heels.
• Chic weekend — Button up and add a slim belt at the waist for a more defined silhouette; pair with a midi skirt and boots.
• Layering — Thin turtlenecks or long-sleeve tees work well under the cardigan in cooler weather; wear under a structured coat for warmth without bulk.
• Texture pairing — Cable texture contrasts nicely with smooth leather, denim, silk or satin pieces—mix textures for visual interest.
• Proportions — Balance a chunky knit by pairing with more fitted bottoms; cropped cardigans look especially good with high-rise styles.
• Accessories — Add a long pendant necklace for an open V-neck, scarves for warmth, or a brooch for a classic touch.
