The Chunky Knit

By Jessi Afshin

thechunkyknitThe word on the street (or at least, in our office) is that Camille’s mom knits up the world’s coziest and downright dreamiest knitted cowl scarves. So while I still yearn for my very own homemade chunky knit collection (hint hint) I’ve found myself fantasizing about cozy chunky sweaters, embellishing my wardrobe with warm knitted socks, and topping it all off with the warmest afghans and mittens. Since there’s nothing quite like the dreamy bliss of being wrapped up in your favorite chunky knit, let’s start this new week by gazing at some of the prettiest knitted inspiration around. And in the meantime, I’m keeping my fingers crossed I land a spot on Mrs. Styles’ prestigious knitting list this holiday season!

    My favorite thing about the cold weather coming is that I can get cozy with some of my favorite chunky sweaters and sweater dresses.

    Bought my first knit scarf last year (was finally headed somewhere cold enough to invest in a nice one!) and it was absolutely amazing…it’s as close as you can get to being in pajamas at work – and I love that concept! 🙂 Xo, Alison

    Overheard someone saying that you were actually next in line on the list, but also heard Mrs. S. was wondering what color cowl you were dreaming of 🙂
