"Choose from three styles...plain, ribbed or cabled," says Silverman. Today we might make these shorter and call them capelets. Regardless, there's always a fashion place for them; fashion will change yarn availability and possibilities, but the value of the pieces doesn't change. Silverman provides nine sizes (9!) so you can go more body-conscious or not, depending on your mood; the ribbed option might be especially flattering. Plain or placket fronts offered. Worked in the round from the hem up to the neck.
