A couple of months ago I received the L.L. Bean shawl collar cardigan that you included in your list or chunky shawl collar sweaters in the fall. I just found this post buried in my liked posts and realized I had one of them. I also realized that I love my sweater, but that I didn't get nearly the mileage out of it this winter that I would have anticipated given how wonderful I think it is. I think it is because I really didn't know how to wear it. Any tips for me?
I wear mine basically as a “damn, did it just get chilly in here?” sweater around the apartment, which probably means I’m wearing jeans and an OCBD. I also wore it around the holidays to family gatherings, but with a casual seasonal tie — think cashmere or wool.
I’ve also worn it as a practical layer for warmth while doing things like shoveling out my car trapped in snow under a parka. I also like it as a nice layer to wear under a casual piece of outerwear — perhaps something military inspired, like a field jacket — to do errands or chores.
