My appreciation of J. Crew waxes and wanes, but I always love their sweaters.

Merino Stripe Zip Cardigan I already have a merino zip sweater from J. Crew. But you know what I don’t have? A STRIPED merino zip sweater.

During college in Chicago I had three lambswool sweaters and a few merino ones that were winter staples. Living in foggy San Francisco sweaters are a layering must; but anywhere they are a convenient way to make up up the difference on a chilly night, or in a climate-cooled building.
