Finding clothes that look stylish but are still practical can be tricky, especially during British summers. While lightweight dresses and linen pieces might be warm-weather favourites, having an extra layer on-hand is always a good idea for cooler evenings, unpredictable weather, or simply adding a little something extra to make your outfit pop.
That’s where a good crochet cardigan comes in. Easy to style, effortlessly chic and perfect for throwing on over your favourite summer pieces. It’s also a wardrobe addition that can work well beyond just one season. And, if you’ve been searching for a versatile addition to your warm-weather wardrobe, M&S might have just the thing.

The M&S Collection crochet cardigan is designed with seasonal layering in mind, made from a breathable cotton-blend yarn with an airy crochet-style stitch that helps keep it feeling lightweight. It comes in a regular fit with a collared neckline, button-through front and scalloped trims. Plus, it’s available in a choice of two colourways: a neutral beige tone and a vibrant chilli red, so there’s something to suit every taste.
Even better, it can be machine washed on a delicate 40C cycle. Ideal if you’re accident-prone or have little ones with permanently sticky fingers.
