Nothing signals the start of winter quite like the <br>
<br>
return of the Fair Isle knit. Once considered ‘ugly' knitwear we'd only pull out from the back of our wardrobes as <br>
<br>
an alternative to a Christmas jumper (especially the red-nosed reindeer kind à <br>
<br>
la Mark Darcy in Bridget Jones's Diary) or for a winter sport holiday (specifically for après-ski),<br>
<br>
the Fair Isle jumper has now become somewhat of a fashion statement.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The knit is named after the small, eponymous Shetland Island in Scotland and uses <br>
<br>
a traditional knitting technique to create those distinctive patterns with multiple colours.<br>
<br>
It was brought into vogue by an earlier Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) in the 1920s, and has remained a casual wardrobe staple for <br>
<br>
members of the Royal Family, including Kate Middleton, whose jumper collection includes at least three different Fair Isle designs.<br>

Another fan of the nostalgic knit is Alexa Chung, who recently <br>
<br>
layered a Fair Isle vest by Molly Goddard over a light blue button-down in a snap for Instagram.<br>
<br>
The It-girl previously also wore a V-neck vest from Cotswolds-based knitwear brand Cooking Apple, and sported a chunky Fair Isle crewneck <br>
<br>
with white, straight-leg jeans, black loafers and an oversized, black leather blazer to ring <br>
<br>
in the festive season at private members' club in London last year.<br>

A host of designers have dropped Fair Isle-inspired knits for AW24, proving the multicoloured jumpers have become a timeless investment.<br>
<br>
If, as in our case, that £1,885 cashmere turtleneck from Loro Piana is a little out of your budget, <br>
<br>
there are countless options on the high street. The cropped <br>
<br>
cardi from Hush certainly caught our attention, as did the Fair Isle knit that was featured in the John Lewis <br>
<br>
Christmas advert.<br>
