Pulled out my only solid RRL cardigan. Layered over the Fair Isle Jacquard Workshirt with Officer's Chinos.

Hey uh, long time listener, first time caller here. My question is, how do you wear THREE layers comfortably?!? Love the show... :cool:

Those who have a shawl cardigan, how do you guys store them?

I find that the knit is looser than my other cardigans and I’m afraid of hanging it to avoid any stretching and folding it is a pain.

fold and put on the shelf for my regulars but most are in IRIS Weather Tight totes under the bed with cedar blocks inside.

I don't store any out in the open -- I've been through too many hurricanes and other severe weather events. If not on my back, they're stored in totes. This might be the same product @DHESS references but these are my go-to:

Like others said, I'd recommend not storing out in the open. Not only for weather/leaks, but moths have caused me enough heartache to teach me a lesson. Even if you think your home is sealed and none can get it, they do and wreck havoc over the years with a little nibble here and there. Also watch out for UV damage and fading if there are any windows near your storage. I've been surprised by a few new purchases that arrived faded and upon further conversations with the store we discovered that it was a window display item that they were clearing out for new inventory, or stacked near large windows for some time.

Honestly, folded in half in a pile on a chair in our bedroom. But when I put them away for the season I fold and store in soft storage bags like these.
