In Praise of Cardigans

[Drago]

With a knackered elbow and shoulder I struggle getting pullovers on and off.

So cardigans are the default alternative for me.

Easy to get on and off, can be unbuttoned to assist with temperature regulation, practical (particularly the one with pockets), comfortable, stylish. What's not to like?

Like Y fronts, they truly are a wonder garment.

Not for me, even zip up hoodies are a no no.

See, that's when the British had style and class. Sure, the average age at death was only 31, but they looked smart.

Funny @Rusty Nails I didn't have you down as someone who would collect knitting patterns.

Since they invented fleeces I've barely worn a jumper, full zip fleece and not with a hood (hate owt on my head)

I am with raleighnut and wear a fleece all the time (in colder weather).

 

[Gunk]

I live in 1/4 zip cotton jumpers (mainly navy blue) or hoodies

Iconic Starsky ( -Hutch) style that is very hard to find in really chunky wool with a big collar.

As with bikes, the correct number of knitting patterns to own is N+1.

If you think pullovers are bad, try getting a sports bra off with a knackered shoulder

My right shoulder is called Clicky Jeff btw.
