I check TOAST's knitwear page weekly - here are the 9 irresistibly cosy designs currently on my wishlist
From tactile alpaca cardigans to durable Donegal wool jumpers, these are the knitwear pieces from TOAST worth noting
As someone who considers themselves a knitwear connoisseur, British clothing brand TOAST is always my first port of call. I check its new-in page more often than I should, and its commitment to using excellent fabrics and timeless designs means it never disappoints.
I worked for the brand several years ago, and it left me with a deep appreciation for TOAST's approach to making clothes. This season, its knitwear collection is stronger than ever with rich, earthy shades and durable, woolly fabrics. And although I already own several of its knits, I have my eye on a few new styles for the chilly months ahead.
From the Orla sweater that's made from wool spun in Donegal, Ireland, to the breathable cotton-linen easy sweater that hangs beautifully on the body, the knitwear collection is full of must-haves, including the best cashmere jumpers too. Below, I've rounded up some of Toast's timeless designs that are currently on my wishlist.
As soon as temperatures drop, I live in my bright green version of the Orla Sweater; however, this deep navy version has caught my attention. Made from cosy Donegal wool and featuring a flattering mid-hip cut and rolled edges, it's a timeless investment piece that you will wear every single winter.
There's something so appealing about this golden olivey shade. Not only is it perfect for pairing with rich neutrals like chocolate brown, but it's also a lovely contrast set against cool blue tones. This jumper is made from a mohair and wool blend for an ultra-soft finish.
The playful stripes on this sweater will add personality to block-coloured outfits. Plus, grey is one of the key autumn/winter fashion colour trends 2026, and this knit offers the chicest way to embrace it.
Add some green to your current rotation with this cosy cardigan. It's made from a knitted merino wool blend with cashmere and has an easy-to-wear shape with a round neckline and a relaxed cut.
Every good wardrobe needs a black cashmere jumper, and this design feels so elevated. Its relaxed cut and longer length make it incredibly easy to throw on over a vest or T-shirt. Style with laid-back denim or sharp tailored trousers.
Heritage-style knits are everywhere at the moment, and this beautiful yoke design embraces this timeless trend perfectly. The warm marmalade shade feels vibrant, making it a joyful alternative to darker knits.
This exact jumper is one of my most worn knitwear pieces. Chocolate brown is another one of the key colour trends this year. This easy sweater is made from a breathable cotton-linen blend and has an extremely flattering cut. It's lightweight compared to thicker wool designs, yet still warm on chilly days.
This super-soft short-sleeve cardigan feels like the perfect companion to jeans thanks to its brick-red colour. The short sleeves make it feel more like a T-shirt than a classic cardigan, so you can button it up and wear it solo too.
For the cosiest feel, this jumper is made from a tactile alpaca wool blend. The neck, hem and cuffs feature rolled edges for a relaxed finish. Layer over simple vests or T-shirts this winter to keep warm in the cold.
Investing in quality knitwear is far more worthwhile than filling your wardrobe with lots of pieces that might only last a season. Natural fibres such as wool, cashmere or cotton are much more breathable than synthetic alternatives, which will regulate your temperature. And natural fibres can last just as long as synthetic pieces; I have owned my Orla sweater for almost six years, and it barely changed since I bought it. That's exactly why brands like TOAST are worth knowing.
Other brands which prioritise using natural fibres in their knitwear include Brora, With Nothing Underneath, Boden and even some high-street favourites including Uniqlo and COS. It's always worth checking the composition of fabrics when buying a new jumper or cardigan.
