In this feature from the new issue of HIGHStyle, our editors discuss this season's best cable knit sweaters.

Cable knit sweaters are criminally underrated — and we're here to set the record straight. The humble knit embodies a perfect if not slightly contradictory mixture of vibes. Depending on the piece, it can lean towards country-club preppiness, give a Hemingway-esque tortured artist feeling, or look like you're fresh off the farm. Basically, the cable knit contains multitudes, which could be a reason why we're all suddenly thirsty for the chunky knit.

Either way, the cable knit is the perfect spring sweater, and if you don't already have one in your rotation, our editors have done the hard work of selecting the best styles this season.

Ferragamo

Corey: Yellow cable knits are always and forever. Thom: But, with this one, I guess you have to figure out what shirt to wear under it. Noah: No shirt. Just rock it.

Brunello Cucinelli

Noah: A white sweater sometimes scares me. Haley: I like the variety of patterns in this knit. And the fact that it’s cotton.

Paul Stuart

Thom: I might regret publishing this information, but the Paul Stuart sale in January has been a secret weapon in my sweater arsenal for about a decade. God willing, this one makes it there by next year.

Bottega Veneta

Corey: This one’s for the influencers. Noah: Is this as heavy as it looks? Haley: Yes.

Polo Ralph Lauren

Thom: What would you call this color? Noah: Cuties orange. Haley: Citrus. Thom: Not cantaloupe? Noah: Ew, no.
