After nosing around and trying on almost everything in town, I now believe that cable sweaters are utterly the way forward. It has a load of looks to it depending on what you dress it with including traditional, old fashioned and preppy (some of my favorite new styles).

As you can see mine is a lovely dark mossy green, which is quite a rare colour but I think It makes it lovely and oldy worldy. It is a statement colour which, according to January's vogue, should be worn with blushed neutrals.
