Next has introduced a new ‘cozy’ cardigan that our team of shopping experts believes is ‘ideal for the holiday season’. As the cold weather sets in, having warm layering options and fashionable knitwear becomes essential, and we have discovered a cardigan that meets all the requirements.

The Boucle Pocket Crew Neck Cardigan With Wool is offered in two colors – chocolate brown and red – providing a subtle yet stylish way to embrace the festive spirit. Available in sizes ranging from XS to 2XL, this £38 boucle design cardigan is made with wool for added warmth. It features a crew neck, pockets, and is machine washable, consisting of a blend of 59% recycled polyester, 29% acrylic, 9% wool, and 3% elastane.

Whether paired with denim jeans, tailored trousers, or layered over a cozy base-layer and combined with a mini skirt, this versatile knitwear piece is sure to be a winter staple.

In comparison, Marks and Spencer offers a Cable Knit Cardigan priced at £46 and comes in two color options. Amazon also features an Oversized Cable Knit Cardigan on sale, originally priced at £33.99, now discounted to £28.99, offering a 15% savings and available in a variety of colors.

With only one review so far, which is a glowing five-star rating, the Next cardigan has already impressed customers. Described by Next as “Embrace cozy style in this cardigan,” the soft, textured knit and chic crew neck make it an ideal layering piece, while the practical pockets add functionality. Made with a wool blend, it is a stylish and comfortable choice for cooler days.

Both color choices, chocolate brown and cherry red, are right on trend this year, making this cardigan a must-have item that is likely to sell out quickly.
