It’s no lie that the trusty cardigan has made a comeback this past season. We’ve seen it draped over shoulders, wrapped around waists, thrown over tank tops, or even worn on its own as a shirt. The resurgence is a reminder that core pieces never go out of style.
I’m glad to see you’ve returned to our ongoing series that is helping many navigate building a more sustainable wardrobe. Each cardigan you’ll see below is made of conscious materials and has a low impact production. So keep scrolling and see if any of the cozy knitwear speaks to you.
