Typically, I enjoy getting dressed during the cooler months more than I do during the summer, but I have been enjoying basking in the glorious sunshine we’ve been treated to lately. It’s been nice to rediscover the dresses that I negated last year, which I’ve been wearing with little else but sandals these days. But as the saying goes, a leopard can’t change its spots, and my mind is already beginning to get fixated on my autumn wardrobe.
Autumn is the perfect time to assemble outfits. It’s not too hot nor too cold, and it’s the best time of year to experiment with layers and heavier textures to come up with the most inventive looks. One of the first things I always want to shop for in autumn is knitwear. There’s just something so comforting about it that makes it difficult for me to resist. And with many of us still looking to spend more time at home for the remainder of 2021, you can rest assured that there are going to be some great knitted options out there.
I’ve already started to see patterns in the knitwear that’s landing in new-in sections across the internet. Chances are you’ll have already invested in a few of these trends, as some of them are carrying over from earlier this year, but others feel distinctly new and exciting.
From co-ords to cold-weather weaves to twee embroidery (not to mention this best seller that’s finally back in stock), these nine autumn knitwear trends are going to take over 2021.
