This season’s 10 best cashmere sweaters

Throughout the winter months I pretty much live in my favourite knitwear pieces. I love cashmere… and every time I’m tempted away from it by a cheaper knit I always end up regretting it.

Nothing wears, washes and lasts like cashmere, and although you might feel that you need one of these after flexing the plastic on a new cashmere jumper you won’t regret it. (Think cost per wear!)

When I’m making this kind of investment I rarely veer away from a core neutral palette of taupe, grey and black, perhaps occasionally straying into stripe territory – I can never resist a good stripe.

So if you are contemplating a cashmere purchase to see you through this winter, I’ve done the legwork for you. Here are 10 of the best.
