There’s something about the first hint of crispness in the air that makes us reach for our favorite sweater. Fall in Northern Michigan is all about layering, cozy textures, and pieces that keep you warm while looking effortlessly chic. At Threads, we’ve curated a knitwear collection that blends comfort with sophistication—so you’ll always be ready for everything the season has in store.

Here’s what’s trending (and what’s new in store) this fall:

1. Luxe Cashmere Staples

Cashmere is the ultimate fall investment piece. Ultra-soft, lightweight yet warm, and endlessly versatile, it’s the layer you’ll live in from September through spring. Our fall arrivals include:

  • Classic crews and v-necks in timeless neutrals.

  • Oversized cardigans perfect for throwing over denim or dresses.

  • Travel wraps and ponchos that double as chic outerwear on mild days.

These pieces bring an elevated polish to your everyday wardrobe while delivering cozy comfort.

2. The Return of Patterns

This season, knitwear gets playful with argyles, stripes, and color-blocking. Think heritage patterns reimagined in modern fits and fresh palettes. Pair a bold patterned sweater with your favorite denim, or layer it under a tailored blazer for a pop of personality.

3. The Oversized Silhouette

Slouchy, borrowed-from-him sweaters are everywhere right now. We’re loving oversized knits paired with slim trousers or wide-leg denim for a perfectly balanced silhouette. Bonus: they double as loungewear for cozy weekends at home.

4. Cropped & Layer-Ready Knits

For those who prefer a more tailored look, cropped sweaters are making a strong return. Ideal for layering over dresses or high-waisted trousers, they give structure without sacrificing comfort. Pair with a midi skirt and Gola sneakers for a casual but put-together vibe.

5. Sweater Dresses: The Ultimate One-and-Done

When you want cozy ease without the layering, sweater dresses are the answer. Style them with knee-high boots, add a belt for shape, or throw on a statement coat for chilly evenings. They’re chic, practical, and undeniably fall-ready.

6. Color Palette of the Season

This fall’s knits lean into earthy neutrals and rich jewel tones:

  • Camel, ivory, and charcoal as timeless foundations.

  • Deep forest green, burgundy, and navy for that autumnal richness.

  • Pops of saffron, dusty rose, or cobalt to break up the neutrals.

Mix and match for tonal looks, or let a bright knit be the star of your outfit.

7. How to Style It All

The beauty of knitwear is its versatility. A few of our favorite pairings this season:

  • Chunky cardigans + denim + loafers for casual days.

  • Cashmere crew + midi skirt + sneakers for downtown strolls.

  • Oversized sweater + leather trousers + boots for date night edge.

  • Sweater dress + tall boots + tailored coat for chic and cozy evenings.
