We're Editors Obsessed with Knitwear—7 Sweaters and Cardigans We Can't Get Enough of This Winter
Winter has found a certain rhythm, and our knitwear has officially become a fundamental part of our daily outfits. At this stage in the season, after several months of use, it’s an ideal time to reflect on the pieces that have provided both elegance and warmth while also pinpointing any gaps that could be filled with cozy additions. As an editor at Who What Wear UK, I work alongside a team of stylish individuals, all of whom have valuable insights into quality knitwear. Therefore, I consulted my fellow editors to find out which knitwear pieces they have been frequently wearing this season and that they will likely continue to cherish until spring arrives.
As a significant component of our wardrobes, knitwear needs to be just right. The ideal silhouette, excellent composition, and substantial wearability are essential. That’s why I wanted to feature items from our closets that we have already tested. In this knitwear edit, you’ll discover classic styles that reappear every year to provide our wardrobes with a warm boost. From luxurious cashmere pieces with thick ribbing and soft finishes to gentle alpaca wool that will be your go-to warm layer year-round, there's a range of standout options in this edit. Naturally, we've included enduring favorites from COS, a selection of Reformation's finest cashmere, as well as brands committed to exceptional knitwear.
If you're ready to elevate your knitwear collection, keep scrolling to discover the 7 editor-approved styles we're wearing repeatedly this winter.
**Shop the 7 Knitwear Pieces Our Editors Are Wearing On Repeat**
1. **COS Chunky Cashmere Crew-Neck Jumper:** This beloved crew-neck jumper from COS is crafted from luxurious 100% cashmere, featuring an oversized fit and substantial feel. Its timeless design ensures fashion editors reach for it every winter, and COS brings it back annually. Imani is pictured wearing the pink version, but there are numerous sleek color options available.
2. **Reformation Jadey Cashmere Oversized V-Neck Sweater:** Composed of 95% recycled cashmere and 5% recycled wool, this jumper is exceptionally cozy. The oversized fit adds a contemporary twist to the classic design and it comes in various excellent colors. I'm wearing the camel version above, which is quite oversized, so if you prefer a more fitted look, I suggest sizing down.
3. **Rise & Fall Cashmere Merino V Neck Jumper:** In contrast, Rise & Fall provides a classic v-neck style made from a luxurious blend of Merino wool and cashmere. This particular color is one of my favorites, but it is available in a variety of sleek shades, from bold red to subtle navy. Marina is wearing hers above!
4. **Sézane Gaspard Cardigan:** The Gaspard distinguishes itself with a wide neckline, creating an elegant scoop shape. The soft super kid mohair and baby alpaca fibers make this a wonderfully warm layering piece. The fit is accurate to size, and I’ve noticed many stylish women wearing it backwards, highlighting the buttons on the back.
5. **Soft Goat Brushed V-Neck:** This is one of the newer additions to my knitwear collection, and I'm already certain it will become one of my most frequently worn styles. The classic design features an oversized fit, perfect for snuggling up. Soft Goat excels at cashmere, and the brushed finish adds a refined texture to winter attire.
6. **With Nothing Underneath Cornwall Jumper:** While you may know it for its exceptional shirts, With Nothing Underneath has ventured into knitwear, and it’s certainly worth your attention. The Cornwall Jumper is a heavyweight style with ribbed details at the collar, cuffs, and hem. Its composition is incredibly soft, making it a piece you'll reach for repeatedly.
7. **Reformation Clara Cashmere Crew Cardigan:** The Clara cardigan by Reformation has captured the hearts of editors, fashion enthusiasts, and celebrities alike. Consistently a best-selling design for the brand, it comprises 95% recycled cashmere and 5% cashmere. The style is available in numerous colors, patterns, and special editions, making it a reliable staple in any great capsule wardrobe.
