Product Insights
The Big Button Shaker-Rib Cardigan by Twik offers a reversible shaker-rib knit that is warmer and thicker than standard stockinette, with vertical ribs that elongate the torso and a drop-shoulder slouch for a relaxed fit. Its large buttons and cropped boxy design allow versatile styling—worn open over a fitted cami or buttoned as a sweater—pairing well with high-waist bottoms. At $49 CAD, it provides value through distinctive oversized buttons compared to similar knits. However, the 50% acrylic/50% reprocessed material has higher pilling tendency, requires cold wash and flat drying, and the cardigan is best as an outermost layer, not suitable under tailored coats.
Verified claims
- Reversibility
- Shaker-rib knit is fully reversible—both sides look identical.
- Warmth
- Uses 20–30% more yarn than stockinette, creating a warmer, thicker fabric.
- Stretch
- Moderate stretch gives enough give for layering while holding its shape.
- Vertical ridges
- Vertical ribs elongate the torso, offsetting the cropped fit.
- Wear styles
- Worn open over a fitted cami for a twinset effect, or buttoned as a sweater.
- High-waist pairing
- Pairs with high-waist bottoms; vertical ribs elongate the torso.
- Drop-shoulder slouch
- Drop shoulders and reversible knit create a relaxed, shapely slouch.
- Layering limitation
- Not suitable under tailored coats; best as outermost layer.
- Care instructions
- Wash cold, use a mesh bag, flat dry, and avoid bleach and softener.
- Material
- 50% acrylic / 50% reprocessed: sustainable, shaker-rib warm, cold wash.
- Brand exclusivity
- Exclusive to Simons, designed in Canada, launched in 1967.
- Design
- Cropped boxy fit, reversible shaker-rib, large buttons, vertical rib.
- Quality commitment
- Twik aims to deliver exceptional style and heightened quality at accessible prices.
- Pilling
- Has a higher pilling tendency; care regimen (mesh bag, cold wash, flat dry) reduces fuzzing.
- Styling
- Wear unbuttoned for a cropped shape or fully buttoned as a sweater, with adjustable V-neck depth.
- Value
- At $49 CAD, the oversized buttons differentiate it from $55 and $90 shaker knits.
