At 56, this is the cardigan I reach for every single evening.

Soft, longline knits that cover, layer over everything and keep the chill off — and because it’s summer, the sisters have marked the whole cardigan collection down even further.

I’m 56, and no matter the season there’s always a chill somewhere — the porch at dusk, the grocery-store air-conditioning, the early mornings. A good cardigan is the piece I reach for most.

A friend had on the softest longline knit and told me it was from three sisters in Naples who are retiring. And because it’s summer, the cardigans are the deepest-discounted of anything they have. Here’s what makes them worth it.

1Soft, warm knit that isn’t scratchy

A soft, cozy knit that keeps the chill off without a hint of itch — the kind you’ll want to live in from morning coffee to the evening walk.

2A longline cut that covers and flatters

Cut long and easy, so it drapes past the hips and covers what you want covered — flattering over a dress, jeans or leggings.

3Layers over absolutely everything

Throw it over a summer dress at night, a blouse for church, or a tee for errands. One cardigan, a dozen outfits.

4Real pockets and easy buttons

Deep, real pockets for your phone and glasses, and easy buttons you can do up without a fight.

5Colors that go with everything

Soft neutrals and warm tones that layer over anything in your closet and never look tired.

6Extra summer discount — while they clear

The cardigans were around $198.95. Because it’s summer, the sisters have marked them down the furthest of anything — so now is the time to stock up for the cooler evenings ahead.

I spent too many chilly evenings reaching for something worn-out. These are the softest cardigans I’ve owned, and with the extra summer discount there’s never been a better time. Grab your colors before they clear.
