The knitwear edit
Knits worth keeping
GANNI knitwear has a sense of humour. A poodle on a sweater, a banana, a crab, a cherry, an argyle that doesn't take itself too seriously, plus the vests and cardigans you'll actually reach for. Warm, a little witty, made to layer.
The edit runs from graphic wool sweaters and vests, the Pink Poodle, the Sweater with Banana, the Daisy Duck, to ribbed merino cardigans, cotton crochet vests and a sheer turtleneck. Mostly wool, merino, alpaca and cotton, with organic and recycled wool in the mix. Prices start around $270.
A good knit earns its keep by lasting. Ours are built to be worn, washed carefully and passed on, and we name the yarn on every product page, because what a sweater is made of decides how long you'll love it.

Often, yes, that's the classic way, over a poplin shirt or a tee with the collar or sleeves showing. But a fitted knit vest also works on its own with high-waist trousers or a skirt.
Merino is fine and soft against the skin; lambswool is a touch heartier and warmer; alpaca is light, fluffy, and very warm for its weight. Each suits a different kind of sweater.
Many are relaxed by design, easy to layer over a shirt or tee. Fit notes are on each product page, so size down if you want a closer fit.
