LORETTA | Cable knit with denim trim

Every sweater I own sits against my throat. This one has a collar, so it never touches.

The reason half the sweaters in the closet do not get worn has nothing to do with how they look. It is the neck. A crew neck sits right against the throat, a rolled neck is worse, and after ten minutes in a warm room you are pulling at it. So the warm thing stays folded and you wear something too thin and are cold instead.

Loretta puts a shirt collar on a cable knit. The neckline is finished in denim, with a button placket running down from it and a chest pocket in the same fabric, so what sits against your throat is a turned collar rather than knitted wool. The placket also means you can wear it open or closed, which is the difference between too warm and just right. The knit itself is a soft braided cable, warm without the weight of a heavy sweater.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• A collar instead of a knitted neck. The denim collar turns away from the throat, so nothing sits against your neck through a long afternoon.
• Open or closed. The button placket lets you adjust as the room changes rather than committing at the front door.
• Cable knit without the bulk. The braided texture gives the warmth of a winter sweater at a weight you can wear indoors.
• The denim trim reads as a shirt. Collar, placket and chest pocket in a contrasting fabric, which is what stops it looking like loungewear.

How it fits

Loretta is true to size, in S through 3XL. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, because a knit that is close at the shoulder pulls the collar out of position and you lose the one thing it is there for. The size chart lists chest, length and sleeve in inches, measured flat.

I cannot wear wool near my neck. The collar means I can wear this.

The camel is a good camel, not orange. I wear it open over a white tee.

Warm enough for our winter here without being a real sweater.
