      Comments about Boden Women Effortless Cable Cardigan:

      i think i've tried every navy cardigan in the winter range & apart from the "Showstopping Jacket" this is the 1st which looks right on me (navy being a tricky colour on me) the colour is right, the fibre is beautifully soft & warm, & the design is suitable for most occasions. i simply fell upon this by accident in my desperation for this colour outer garment & am so glad i did.

      Fluffed it

        Comments about Boden Women Effortless Cable Cardigan:

        I loved this cardigan when it arrived and couldn't wait to put it on. However, I was wearing a black top which, from the minute it came into contact with the new garment, was covered in cream fluff. I literally left a cloud of fuzz behind me as I headed to my bedroom mirror to check myself out. With reluctance, I have sent it back because although I did really like the design and fit of the cardigan itself, I couldn't face the amount of clothes-brushing keeping it would've entailed.

        Comments about Boden Women Effortless Cable Cardigan:

        Unfortunately I found this cardigan to be nothing special. I ordered the navy, size 10. I am 5'7 1/2", average-to-slim, and the sweater just hangs in an unflattering, rather awkward way. I would gladly use it as a robe if I had the need for another (which I don't). But there is nothing about it that makes the wearer look attractive. The front plackets just hang awkwardly and there is no closure button or hook. It just hangs straight up and down, slightly overlapping in the front, creating a rather uninteresting silhouette. I did like the colour and weave however.

        I am so disappointed with this, the style and colour is lovely. But the fluff is everywhere, and I don't think I am keeping it. Perhaps the navy blue might be a better option.

        Really nice and (not too) warm cardigan - to wear with a belt as shown in the picture. Quality is fairly good, however mine wasn't stitched well under the arm so I had to repair it before the first wear. However it was too nice to return.

        Comments about Boden Women Effortless Cable Cardigan:

        I absolutely loved this when it arrived. However, after only a couple of wears the piling started. As the knit is fairly loose it is really difficult to tidy it up. So, all in all whilst I liked the cardigan the Pay Per Wear for it has worked out to be quite astronomical....

          I have bought the cream which is going to be very useful to wear with a variety of colours. The wool is soft and comfortable, not at all itchy, and it falls well. The cable pattern (which is repeated on the centre back) adds interesting detail. I will get a lot of use out of this, especially over Christmas and on cold January days.

            I wear it with jean and boots; I wear it with a knee length straight skirt and heels. I have also bought the blue version.

              I got this yesterday in the Navy and it is absolutely perfect, I wanted a stylish cardigan to wear as a coat on these warn Autumnal days and then be able to wear it under my coat as an extra layer when it gets really cold and this ticks all the boxes. the shape is very flattering and is tru to size I got a 10. I may even order the grey as well. Love it thank you Boden!!

                This cardigan looks great with skinny jeans and boots and is already a staple with me. I prefer wearing with a belt to give some more shape - I am curvy and it looks much better that way. Only downside is I'm fluffing everywhere - chairs in the office covered in cream fluff even though I've washed it! Hoping this will wear off...
