The day after Labor Day marks the first day of fall in our books, which means we can finally say fall 2022 is here. There’s nothing better than cool mornings bundled up with a cup of coffee, watching the autumn leaves fall before your eyes. Even with a steady stream of PSLs and fire-scented candles, no fall season is complete without gorgeous knitwear to accompany it.

Our classic cardigans and cozy knitwear pieces have had a significant makeover this year. Designers are having fun with colors, prints, and silhouettes. On the Fall 2022 runway, Gucci played with brushed wool in bright knit cardigans, while Marni elevated the classic crewneck sweater in striped brushed mohair. This season’s sweaters are anything but basic.

Whether you’re looking for a classic cable-knit sweater or a glam statement cardigan, read on for six knitwear trends that we’re wearing this fall.

Elle Woods and Cher Horowitz would surely approve of this trend. First appearing in the early ’90s, this fuzzy sensation is back in full force. And, this time, it’s not reserved for our sweaters. It’s for miniskirts as well! Keep it classic with a black or ivory cardigan, or have fun with the trend in a bright hue.

There is something so effortlessly chic about a statement sleeve. Puff sleeves are understated yet add a feminine touch to any knit piece. Style your balloon-sleeve cardigan with denim and chunky loafers for a trendy look that will have you turning heads all season long.

Crochet was another sought-after trend this summer that transitions seamlessly into the cooler months. Crocheted pieces are great for layering or adding a pop of color. Think of handcrafted pieces with patchwork motifs and intricate designs. A crocheted handbag or bucket hat makes for the perfect fall statement piece.

I’m not one to ever deny a little sparkle. Something as simple as a glamorous button can change the whole look and feel of a cardigan. There are so many gorgeous options to choose from, whether you’re into pearls or crystal accents. For a more understated sparkle, you could opt for a knit sweater with a subtle sheen.

The classic cable-knit sweater we all know and love has gotten a facelift. You can always count on the standard corded sweater, but it’s nice to revamp our wardrobes with new styles. This season, it’s all about cropped silhouettes, exaggerated hems, oversized fits, and fringe details.

This fall, less is more when it comes to your knitwear. This skin-baring trend is taking fall fashion by storm. Cold-shoulder sweaters and ribbed knits with cutouts are perfect for a night out when you’re feeling a little sultry. Pair your barely-there sweater with leather trousers and booties for a quintessential it-girl look.
