This neat little jumper, with its Nordic colourwork motifs in a palette of greys and white, should appeal to style-conscious teens who appreciate the look of classic handknits.

It’s sized to fit chests from 27in to 37in, and has long cuffs for a youthful feel, while the length of the garment is perfect for pairing with skinny jeans.

The design is knitted in Navia’s soft Duo yarn, which blends Faroese and Shetland wool with Australian lambswool, and comes in lots of bright colours as well as softer neutrals.
