Unlike your cotton T-shirts or go-to crewnecks, sweatersand wool, in particularshould be cared for in a very specific way to get the most longevity out of your piece. Storage Sweaters should never be hung, ever. The weight of the knitwear will drag it down, leading to stretching and potentially cause holes near the shoulders. Instead, fold your sweaters and keep them in a drawer or on a shelf. To deter moths, cedar chips or sachets of lavender can be stored with them.
Although I thought it wasn't possible, this winter my love of knitwear hit new heights. The hardest working item in my wardrobe was a black, oversized fine wool T-shirt. I wore it over my workout gear, with blazers to meetings and layered beneath a thick cable knit when writing at home. I took to sleeping in a cashmere-silk blended singlet if that sounds lush, it really is.
