Yeah I know very, very steep. And as I work in security I cant even condone nicking them. They will last though. Assuming you don't get rotten and fall through your neighbours hedge with it on like I did with me last one. Shame. I loved that top.
My friend did something similar. Went out and bought a white Fred Perry shirt, went straight to the pub and covered it in Strongbow and black then fell asleep in a hedge on the way home.
Couple of washes and it was fine. Thats craftsmanship.
I must confess that I have had Cardigans over the years, but now they are serving a very good money saving purpose. When you think ' I need to put the heating on ', substitute cardigan for heating. It works for me.
'ello everybody. After being registered on this site for nearly two years this is my first ever post (post - is that what you call it? I am getting on a bit and this is all new to me). Probably says a lot about me that the first thing thats got me going is cardigans and not football. Anyway my fashion tip to to you all - and looking round at games a bit of decent dress sense wouldn't go amiss - go for a bit of John Smedley. A bit pricey but British and proper quality. Would still wear them meself but nowadays am bit of a fat **** and need clobber for the fuller figure. But if any of you need advice in how to strut around in proper South-east london style then I'm always here for you. And Gok Wan I aint.
By the way...if any of you (Henry we already know about of course) out there has an obsession or underlying fixation re 'cardy's' fear not, there is help available.

haven't read all this so i may have missed it but how has the word 'Gabicci' not come up. Pair of dog tooth farrahs and a Gabicci (with ironmongery and suede) from James Terry in Eltham, basket weave shoes fromn Carducci in Lewisham, a roll neck and a deerstalker hat - didn't get any better than that.

Good call on the Smedleys, my friend. I have three at the moment. But, as you say, full price you're looking about £120 each. They do Smedleys in XL and XXL, though.
It is most important to ensure that the cardigan is not too 'bulky'. There's nothing worse than standing at the end of Platofm 14 at Clapham Junction with your spotter's book and pencil and finding that your duffel coat or anorak won't do up properly because you've put a heavy cable knit on. A matching bobble hat can help protect you from the elements for, as may of us know, the wind fairly whips around the Junction and London bridge.
As its currently taken a Autumnal nippy turn at the moment , got me thinking about cardie ware today , definately in the market for some new clobber this Autumn , as currently 'resizing' (Losing weight) whats going to be making its way back into your wardrobe in the cardigan stakes this Autumn / Winter?

Did you also use it on your action man?
Ever seen Harry Enfield's "I saw you coming" character...
Marks and Spencer - THE place for a nice cardie.
M&S had a great deal last week with money off knitwear.
Why does anyone who wears a cardigan always look so cool
Tip for you all.............go to the charity shop capital of the world......Beckenham.
There, I've no doubt, you'll find all the cardigans that money can buy!
