Chocolate brown has quietly become the neutral people reach for instead of black, and a cable knit is a good place to put it. The cables give the cotton some weight and texture without making the sweater heavy, and the fit stays close rather than slouchy, so it works under a coat as easily as it works alone. Twenty-five inches puts the hem at the hip. It sits well with cream, with denim, and with almost anything already in the autumn half of the wardrobe. This sweater is see through.
