A good quality knit will be your friend not for just a season, but for years to come. Many high street and even designer knits are poly blends that lose their shape and bobble rapidly, whereas a properly-made wool, alpaca or cotton knit will stay lovely for many years with the right care – think handwashing, air drying, mending and de-bobbling.
Whether your preference is for stand-out colourful or classic and neutral, there’s a world of ethical brands and knitters to be found online. From brands that recycle deadstock materials and textile waste to makers who produce in small batches with ethically-sourced materials, I've rounded up the names to know and the pieces to add to your 2024 wish list.
