This V-neck cable knit openwork women’s sweater is a stylish piece for autumn and winter, combining a retro feel with a relaxed vibe. From its design to its craftsmanship, it embodies the logic of “gentleness and practicality coexisting.” Berikut adalah analisis terperinci dari pelbagai perspektif: It features a wide V-neck and pearl button placket: the V-neck depth is controlled at a slight 15° angle, which not only flatters the neckline and makes the face appear smaller but also prevents any wardrobe malfunctions; the round pearl buttons soften the heaviness of the knitwear and add a touch of refined gentleness. The V-neck opening also provides space for layering (it can be layered over camisoles or shirts).
The sweater’s length is controlled in the 40-50cm short range, paired with dropped shoulders and slightly flared sleeves, which both reveals the waistline and is suitable for pairing with high-waisted bottoms without appearing sloppy; the loose fit is forgiving of different body types, allowing for unrestricted movement and creating a relaxed and effortless atmosphere.
The neckline, Cuffs, and hem are all finished with ribbed edges, creating a contrast between the soft and hard textures of the main cable knit pattern. This prevents deformation and enhances the clean lines of the silhouette. The back uses a relatively flat knit to avoid making the sweater appear bulky, while highlighting the design focus on the front.
These types of sweaters typically use wool + mohair blends or cotton blends: Wool provides warmth and drape, ensuring comfort for autumn and winter wear; Mohair adds a fluffy, soft texture, giving the sweater a lightweight and comfortable feel, while its subtle velvety sheen adds a touch of gentle sophistication; Some basic styles use cotton blends, which are more suitable for wearing alone in spring and autumn, offering better breathability and a more affordable price.
The overall feel is soft and skin-friendly, without any itchiness. After washing and softening, it retains the warmth of knitwear while avoiding the heaviness of traditional chunky knit sweaters.
Main cable knit texture: Utilizing a chunky knit 3D cable pattern, the texture interweaves in a “rope-like” pattern, with each cable stitch approximately 3-5cm wide, adding to the garment’s three-dimensionality and retro feel.
Openwork details: Small honeycomb-like openwork (holes within 3mm in diameter) interspersed between the cable stitches breaks the monotony of a solid-color knit while ensuring breathability, without appearing cheap.
The ribbed trim at the neckline and cuffs is a fine, vertical knit, creating a “dense-sparse-dense” rhythmic contrast with the main “chunky cable knit + openwork” pattern, enhancing the structural feel and drawing visual attention to the garment’s texture.
This sweater is highly versatile, suitable for various everyday occasions:
Casual: Pair it with a high-waisted satin skirt (such as the off-white long skirt in the picture) and loafers for a gentle, elegant look; or pair it with wide-leg jeans and chunky sneakers for an American retro preppy style.
Autumn and winter layering: As a middle layer, wear a turtleneck base layer underneath and a short coat/down jacket on top. Roll up the cuffs to reveal the cable knit texture and add layers to the outfit; it can also be worn over a dress as a “light coat”.
