The Wizard School Cardigan...In Two Styles - Made to wear everywhere!
The Wizard School cardigan is a classic!
Easy to wear and comfortable, the cardigan is perfect for the layered look. At Hobbie's House, we knit the standard school uniform cardigan in all Wizard School colors. Moreover, wearing a cardigan is now cool. Buttoned or zippered, Mister Rogers made the cardigan his trademark. Remember the varsity sweater? During the past year, we have received many requests for school sweaters, more specifically, reproductions of varsity sweaters for High School and College alumni groups. Varsity sweaters are also found as pullovers but the more common style is the cardigan or letter sweater. Judging by the latest media coverage for the upcoming movie, the cardigan is obviously gaining in popularity and worn by more students. Walking to your next "Magic Spells" class or simply as a change to your school uniform wardrobe, the cardigan will never go out of style.
It is an easy to wear cardigan with a modified sleeve designed to reduce the bulk normally associated with this style of cardigan. Other details include a five button front closure. The buttons are black.
It is an easy to wear cardigan with full fashioned, set-in sleeves. Other details include a five button front closure. The buttons are black. House colors adorn the bottom of the cardigan bodies and sleeves with a narrow/wide/narrow stripe - in both styles. Both cardigans are knit in 100% wool - we strongly recommend dry cleaning. A wee bit of fashion history... The cardigan, this knitted garment that buttons or zips down the front, was named after James Thomas Brudenell 7th earl of Cardigan - a British general during the Crimean War. Brudenell also led the Charge of the Light Brigade, immortalized by Lord Tennyson's poem. With the help of inherited wealth, he set out to make his military regiment the best-dressed in the service by introducing the cardigan jacket. From personal experience, Hobbie can vouch that the cardigan has always been an integral part of the British school uniform. Our school colors were navy and light blue. So why not add a cardigan to your wardrobe - they are popular indeed and come in so many different styles - cropped, hooded, long, buttoned, zippered too.
Due to generous wearing ease added to the "PoA" style Wizard School Cardigan, the Misses XL size is large enough to fit a 1X but check your personal measurements in any case and be sure to ask questions if unsure of the sizing. Men's standard sizes are:

The "PoA" styled Wizard School cardigan has a comfortable fit, which simply means that it has a bit more wearing ease than our pullover sweaters, as cardigans should.
