subject: Stay Warm & Ultra-cool This Season Wearing Hot Knits Stock Up On Womens Knitwear From Missgui [print this page]


Knitwear is high fashion this season with all types of knit being seen on the catwalks at the beginning of the season. It is just as well because the winters are becoming notoriously cold in the UK with lots of snow and ice. Wrapping up in winter woollies and looking fashionable is an ideal situation. Knitwear has gone through stages of being frumpy and unpopular however wool has had a revival and is far from just for Grandmas anymore. Knitwear is warm, easy to look after and comes in all shapes and sizes making it a real treat for designers to work with. You can create knitwear in many shapes, styles and colours which lends its uses to a varied array of other fashions. Knitwear can complement other looks on the catwalk and due to the versatility of wool it can be a fashion designers dream.

Wool is a natural product and no animals are harmed in the production of it wool can be taken from sheep and goats, with mohair and cashmere coming from goats. Synthetic materials can be used to knit with, or a combination of wool and acrylic can be used. Different yarns and needle widths are used to create many effects. Machine knitting is fast and it is a lot quicker to produce clothes in this way. Texture can be achieved on knitted garments from the use of different stitches and when following a pattern it is possible to create pictures and motifs. To add to the versatility embellishments can be sewn onto knitted clothing to give further effects. Knitted clothing can be created with other materials such as cotton and leather giving even more flexibility.

Add some knitwear to your wardrobe this winter; choose bold designs in jumpers or jumper dresses coupled with chunky cable tights and knee high boots. You can choose to go for understated glamour with thin knitted designs that softly drape in black, beige or cream. If you are a dedicated follower of fashion then you may want to embrace a more quirky look with animal motifs or wild designs. If your style is smart then go for tailored knit with gold chain details. If you are wearing knits for a night out you can choose sequined trim or crystal embellishments. For a casual look go for bright colours in thick wool coupled with leggings and boots. Compliment your knitted look nicely with long cable knit gloves, beanie hats and knee high socks.
