It's the depths of winter and going from work to weekend to special mid-winter occasions requires some handy knitwear essentials that offer up plenty of mileage.
From soft cardigans to luxurious ponchos, these are the knitwear pieces that work just as well lounging about at home as they do travelling on a plane to some far flung destination.
Several local retailers have chosen to release their own exclusive cashmere lines, including Fabric and Muse, the latter's luxurious range of contrasting coloured cashmere wraps and sorbet coloured sweaters teaming perfectly with denim or a well cut pant for the office.
Try out the great local artisanal knitwear pieces designed by hand from Harry Were and Areez Katki (available from Miss Crabb) or the chunky knit cardigans by Nicole Leybourne and her knitwear brand The Knitter.
