The collar stands. That is the difference between this and every other button-front cardigan - instead of a flat round neckline, a band of ribbing rises at the throat and stays there, which changes the posture of the whole piece.
Buttons run from the top of that collar down the front, so it closes all the way up like a jacket or opens from the chest down. The knit is brushed soft with a slight halo to the surface, the shoulders drop a little past the joint, and deep ribbed cuffs turn back easily over the hand. The body ends at the hip.
Closed, it reads as outerwear. That is genuinely useful in the weeks when a coat is too much and a sweater is not enough.
