One of the holes in my wardrobe is cardigans. Very useful to me for an ACed office and to wear on cooler summer mornings/evenings.
My requirements for them are not extensive - must be natural fibers, in my main colors and in a classic cut. But as a petite person with a short torso, I usually struggle to find the length that suits me, often cardigans in retail are too long on me.
I heard from a fashion blogger about good ones from Uniqlo. 100% merino wool, lightweight, machine washable (not a must at all for me). I liked Uniqlo merino sweaters before but never bought one because they’ve been always too long on me. Size M is 22” long now! I also like that the crew neck is not too wide and fit close around a neck.
I like them buttoned up and unbuttoned. Bought black and navy. Liked cream, grey and green, too and had to stopped myself.
The only negative is that buttons are a bit thin, I might replace mine.
