Kintting Trends

As the weather starts to heat
g knitwear is slightly altering to
make way for lighter summer garments.
Key items this summer include light
cardigans, ribbed sweater dresses,
oversized light weight jumpers and
statement knits. Although many of the
key trends from spring 2015 will carry
through to summer 2015-2016, soft
silhouettes, feminine and chic garments
channelled from the 1950’s in pastels,
sorbets, neutrals and jewel tones are
taking reign as a popular trend to look
out for this season. Take inspiration

understand the look.
Create a versatile summer wardrobe
and standout from the crowd this
season. Replace key winter items with
knitwear designed for the warmer
weather. These garments can be worn
for years to come as they never seem
to go out of style. Substitute winter
coats for lightweight cardigans and
hoodies. Long sleeve jumpers and
chunky cardigans can be stowed away
until next winter as knitted tees, short-
sleeve cardigans and light shawls now
stand in place.
Colours – enter bright summer hues

colours of spring and enter the
brighter hues of summer, the colour
palette remains much the same only
