Bertrade | Knit Cardigan Open Front Split Hem Blue
Loose knit. Hem splits. Done.
The front falls open and drapes rather than clings, so it layers over a tee or a slip dress without adding bulk. Shoulders sit wide and soft, which is what gives the cardigan its lived-in line. The knit holds a gentle stretch, so pushed-up sleeves stay where you put them. Sizing runs generous by design: take your usual size for the intended slouch, or size down for less volume through the body.

Open Front That Layers Over Anything With no buttons to fasten, the cardigan settles over whatever you already have on. It reads finished with jeans and just as considered over a dress.
Split Hem That Moves As You Walk The side splits release the hem with each step, so nothing pulls across the hips when you sit down. They also let a long cardigan sit flat over a midi skirt rather than bunching.
Dropped Shoulders That Soften The Line The seam falls below the shoulder point, so the sleeve drapes instead of standing up. It keeps the silhouette easy even over a shirt.

Loose Knit With Weight Behind It A soft, open-gauge knit with enough body to hang straight from the shoulder and a slight give through the sleeve. Ribbed cuffs and front edges hold their shape after a day's wear, and the hem finishes flat at the splits.
Wear it over a white tee with straight-leg denim and boots, or belt it over a slip dress.
