Trend How-To: The Knit

One of the most versatile pieces you can purchase for winter is the humble knit, not to mention one of the most practical for keeping you warm.

There are so many ways you can style a classic knit now, and brands have a huge array of colours and textures to choose from.

This is clearly a trend to jump on board with, not only is it super comfortable but it is popping up on style blogs from Elin Kling to Shine By Three.

Mint is one of those beautiful crisp colours that is popping up all over the place, or if you want to dress your knit up try embellishments or metallics.
