The plain cardigan is the hardest one to get right. There is no cable to hide behind and no collar to draw the eye - every decision shows, and most of them are about proportion. Get those wrong and it is a school cardigan.

This one is cut short, ending at the top of a waistband rather than sitting over it, with a round neckline set high and close. The buttons are small and closely spaced, which keeps the front from gaping between them, and the ribbing at the cuffs and hem is narrow rather than deep so it adds no bulk anywhere. The cashmere is knitted fine.

It is the piece that goes over a dress in a cold restaurant and looks like it was planned rather than grabbed on the way out.
