{"product_id":"the-sunlit-knit-open-front-cardigan","title":"The Sunlit Knit | Open-Front Sunscreen Cardigan in Lightweight Knit","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSummer light is generous. Your skin does not have to accept all of it. The Sunlit Knit exists for the hour between four and six, when the sun is low enough to reach under a parasol and the air is still warm enough that a jacket feels absurd. It is an open-front knit that covers the arms and shoulders without adding heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is a polyester and acrylic blend at under 120 grams per square metre, which is the weight band where a garment shades without insulating. The knit is an open stitch, so air moves through the fabric rather than around it. Sleeves are three-quarter length, cut to end where a bracelet sits, and the neckline is a simple O that does not compete with a necklace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt closes with nothing. There is no button, no zip, no tie; the front is open by design, which is exactly what makes it useful over a dress, a camisole or swimwear. Sizing runs from M to 5XL, which matters because this is the kind of piece people want in the size that fits their shoulders rather than the size a label insists on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCoverage and heat are not the same thing.
