I realize we talked scarf styling just last week, but with snowy weather refusing to lessen its grip on so many of you, we thought you’d enjoy some more cozy style inspiration – especially when it’s this interesting of an idea. Have you heard of the knit knot yet? It’s a totally unique twist on wearing your sweater…around your neck! Half shawl, half scarf, it’s an entirely new way of bundling up. If you’re looking for a super eye-catching style, we dare you to try this sweater trend.

While we were a bit skeptical at first, every new example had us more convinced. To pull it off, all you have to do is take a thin wool sweater {we love the cable knit and mohair for their extra texture and detail!} drape it over your chest, loop the sleeves around your neck once and tie into a knot. Simply give the sweater a little twist to one side or the other and voila, you have the knit knot! Here’s a quick video tutorial to help you get the look!

We’re so in love with the fashion forward idea and can’t wait to give it a try – even with near 70 degree temps in San Francisco!

What do you think? Too funky or totally perfect??
