13 of the best knitwear options to invest in before the temperatures drop

13 of the best knitwear options to invest in before the temperatures drop

The days are getting colder which means we are switching our t-shirts for jumpers and cardigans – here are 13 of the best options to invest in now 


There is a chill in the air.

I can’t pinpoint when it happened exactly, but summer is deciding to slowly slip away without a word. Autumn is coming in its place, and now a jacket must be brought along on every excursion in case of emergencies.

This changing in the ranks means knitwear is very much on our radar and we can’t complain. It is is a vital element of autumn wardrobes and now is the time to invest in one or two cosy companions.

ASOS is leading the way with its varied selection, the crew neck jumper with stripes in green is already in our shopping basket. Zara, Mango and all of the other usual suspects continue to create solid knitwear selections, while Arket is serving those who want directional pieces. Expect unusual design aspects and shapes that will bring your fashion game to an unreachable level.
