These 11 Fall Sweaters Exude Effortless Italian Style, From $25

"In a way, the high standard of Italian knitwear is what brought me to move here from America. My husband's family business is Scaglione, an Italian knitwear company that is three generations old and based in Bergamo, Italy. They produce knitwear for some of the biggest luxury fashion houses in the world, as well as sell clothes under their own brand by the same name."

"I've also learned how to wash cashmere sweaters correctly, look out for pilling, and understand how the softness of different yarn colors varies due to the dyeing processes. I even think more critically about the different weights of knitwear, and what works best for day versus evening wear (this Scaglione Sheer V-neck has a lighter weight that almost mimics a blouse and lends itself best to an elevated evening look)."

"Seeing my husband painstakingly test the softness and durability of Scaglione's products, it's been amazing to see the work that goes into producing such high-quality knitwear. Now, I feel even more confident in my ability to recommend the best fall knits of the season, that capture effortless Italian style-but come at more affordable price points for the average shopper. Here, I've rounded up 11 stylish fall knitwear items, from cozy cardigans to elegant sweater dresses, all under $100."
