They've got to have pockets though, I like me pockets. I'm just like Mrs. B and have a tissue stuffed in one pocket, and often a couple of spare dog poo back in the other.

You can't take me anywhere.
I love Mrs B! The character makes it a cool look.

So do I. They are brilliant, light & heavier weight & no ironing, they dry fast too. I have a lot of them all different colours.

Some fleeces do have buttons, but I prefer the zip ones. I think they look much tidier if half undone than a cardigan.

Re: Cardigans.

I like chunky warm cardigans in winter and for when it gets cooler,its better than popping a coat on all the time

It's funny that Muddy, but I dislike igreyso much I don't even like it near me. I have no idea why.

My son't living room is all grey walls and black settees etc, it gives me the willy's.

The only thing grey in my house is my dogs, so they better be on their best behaviour if they want to stay!

I have some fleeces .
And they are all of the above .
But
They are not elegant and every time you wash them they release umpteen micro fibres into the water which gets into the eco system .

Re: Cardigans.

Cardigans jumpers and fleeces love them all.

All sorts of looks and materials.

Knitted my favourite summer cardie in a soft cotton yarn, light and airy, in a pretty pale blue with pink flowery buttons.

My favourite winter one is a thick double double knit in a winter white with a contrasting red collar, pockets and buttons. Warmer than a coat.

I keep meaning to knit a hat to go with it. Must get onto that or it'll be winter again before I get going !

Re: Cardigans.

I have several cardigans, long sleeve and short sleeve, warm ones and thinner ones, traditional style and fashionable style.

I have seen many younger people wearing cardigans too
