Weekly Window Shop: Cricket Jumpers
A couple of weeks ago The Sunday Times Style ran a piece about cricket jumpers and there was one in particular, a lush cashmere number from Boden, that kickstarted a bit of a window shopping sweater obsession. Because the one from Boden was sold out, immediately, and I wanted it so badly, and you know what it’s like when you see something and then can’t have it and spend years trawling eBay only to finally get hold of it six years later but then the moment has passed and you wonder why you ever wanted it…ugh.
So, here are my alternatives. None of them quite compare to the £195 Boden Sweater-of-Dreams, but I’m consoling myself that at least I’ll have saved some pennies…
The Jack Wills Marten Cricket V Neck, available in black (or is it navy") with white stripe or white with black (or is it navy") stripe. It’s not cable knit but it’s an easy-to-wear weekend throw-on that’s not too low in the neckline. £59.50 here.
The Open Stitch Cricket Jumper from Topshop gives things a new twist – I have a sneaking suspicion that this may be the one I end up going for. It’s slightly softer than a traditional cable knit and there’s something high-end feeling about the contrast between the open knit and the sporty stripes.. £39 here.
Crew Clothing’s pink jumper doesn’t have stripes but it is cable knit and I do tend to go a bit batty for pastels in spring. They are never flattering...
