You might still be seeking relief from extreme temperatures right about now (these August heat waves are no joke), but sweater weather is only mere weeks away, which means it’s time to start stocking up on knitwear. If you’re not sure where to start, we’ve put together the essential sweater capsule wardrobe that includes every type of sweater you’ll soon be needing, from chunky cable-knit varieties to chic turtlenecks to on-trend cardigans. Once you have these in your closet, you’ll be set for the season.

If you’re looking for a simple sweater to throw on for any occasion, a ribbed knit will do the trick. Simple but textured, this is a classic.

We’d be lying if we said we didn’t dream about cozy cable-knit options for fall. Anything made with bulky yarn is a must-have in our books.

A simple crewneck sweater will be the perfect option when you want something light enough to wear every day.

Turtlenecks are a great way to add a sense of polish and drama to any ensemble.

Cardigans are having a major moment, and we love how easy they are to layer.

When you’re transitioning from summer to fall and can’t decide whether you want to stay warm or cold, a cropped sweater can give you the best of both worlds.

Oversized

There’s something about oversize sweaters that has us wanting to drink pumpkin spice lattes sooner rather than later.

Now that you’ve added these to your cart, step into these cozy outfits for the fall.
