Why a sweater vest is the knitwear update you need this winter

My new favourite thing is a Molly Goddard knitted sweater vest. Irritating admission: I got it at a sample sale. It’s grey with a pink stripe which initially felt slightly sudden but on winter days a little bit of colour is so cheering.

Sweater vests have been buzzing around for a while, but are something I’ve completely ignored until now. If I’m honest, I didn’t get the point. Some were wearing them earlier in the year with a bare arm which, while I respected the effort, couldn’t see it as something that would work for me personally. It felt very much like an item you could wear for about two days of the year where your arm wouldn’t be too cold and your body not too warm.
