Whether it’s a sleeveless knit vest, a crew neck or V neck pullover or a long knit cardigan, knitwear is easy to wear or layer with everything in your wardrobe.
WHAT IS CONSIDERED KNITWEAR?
Knitted clothing such as women’s jumpers and cardigans are pieces created by weaving threads through one another to create a textured fabric.
Pure wool or wool blends are often used to make warm winter knits. Lightweight knits and knitwear for layering are also crafted from the following blends of fibres:
- Cotton/acrylic
- Cotton/viscose
- Cotton/acrylic/polyester
- Viscose/acrylic
- Polyester/acrylic/nylon
Knitwear includes knit sweaters (also called jumpers or pullovers) in crew neck or V neck styles, short or long knit cardigans that are open or buttoned through the front, and sleeveless knit vests.
WHAT WAYS CAN YOU STYLE KNITWEAR?
Perhaps one of the most versatile pieces of clothing, knitwear can be worn with so many wardrobe pieces in a number of ways. Delivering casual to smart-casual looks, knitwear works with jeans, pants and skirts - easily dressed up or down with the right accessories such as shoes and a bag.
Ways to style your transeasonal knitwear to create a range of different looks include:
- Layered over a shirt with the collar and cuffs visible.
- Worn half tucked or loose over Australian Cotton long sleeve tops or tanks.
- Beneath jackets and coats for winter warmth.
- Draped across your shoulders for a casual look.
A finely-textured simple crew or V neck jumper takes on a stylish look worn over a collared long sleeve shirt. Match with jeans and white sneakers for casual coffee catch-ups, or elevate to smart casual with boots and a midi skirt. Layered with jackets, shackets or longline coats and you’ll look as cosy as you feel in new season knitwear and a pair of linen pants or your favourite jeans.
WHEN CAN YOU WEAR KNITWEAR?
Our warmest knitwear is certainly on high rotation during autumn and winter, however ladies knitwear in cotton blends works with summer wardrobes too. A cotton cardi can be paired with shorts and a cotton t-shirt, sleeveless or short-sleeve knit tops, and skirts or your go-to denim skirts.
Find the perfect layering piece, a knit jumper, cardigan or knit vest will always be on call through all seasons.
HOW DO YOU WASH AND DRY YOUR KNITWEAR?
Knitwear is crafted from several different fibres including natural fibres such as pure wool and 100% Australian Cotton, as well as blends. Therefore, you should always check the label before washing delicate knitwear.
You can also read our Care Guide for tips on caring for your knitwear, including:
- Doing a cold water hand wash with gentle detergent.
- Not using the dryer but air drying your knitwear on a flat surface.
- Ensuring knitwear isn’t washed with clothes that have zips or hooks which can catch and pull the delicate fibres.

BEST WEARING FABRICS FOR YOUR KNITWEAR
The warmest winter knitwear is commonly made from natural fibres, such as cashmere, merino wool and mohair. These fabrics trap in heat to keep you cosy and insulated in the cold while wicking away moisture for maximum comfort. You can also find blends that include acrylic, polyester and cotton that provide warmth, softness and durability. Knitwear with a cotton blend is ideal for warmer days as it is breathable. Our sleeveless rib knit vests can be styled over long sleeve tops, shirts and tees for a smart casual look.
