Frankie Shop Sweater Guide 2026: 14 Knits by Fibre
The best Frankie Shop sweater for most wardrobes this autumn is a relaxed crewneck in a real wool blend. The Frankie Shop knitwear on Coveti runs from the fuzzy Timea Mohair Fuzzy Sweater in Dark Grey at $440 to the denser Hana Wool Sweater in Light Grey at $570, with the full edit in women’s knitwear.
Knits sit at the centre of the label’s colder months, and they work hardest under the tailoring and coats covered in our Frankie Shop Fall 2026 edit. This guide goes piece by piece through sweaters, cardigans, turtlenecks, knit vests and a short run of sweatshirts and hoodies, with the fibre content of each new arrival and what that content means once you start wearing it.
What Frankie Shop sweaters are worth buying in 2026?
The two strongest new sweaters are Timea for texture and Hana for everyday warmth, with cashmere and merino options for anyone who wants a finer knit.
Timea is the one that photographs as soft as it feels. The composition on the label is 33% kid mohair, 33% wool, 28% polyamide and 6% elastane, made in China, with a crewneck, dropped shoulders and a relaxed line. Kid mohair comes from young Angora goats and is finer than adult mohair, which is where the brushed halo comes from. The wool adds warmth and body, the polyamide gives the yarn strength, and the small share of elastane helps the knit recover its shape after a long day of pushing sleeves up. Other colourways are on Coveti too, including Lime, Navy, Bottle Green and Dark Olive, all at $440.
Hana is the quieter buy. It is 94% wool and 6% polyamide, described as a bi-colour double-faced wool knit with a crewneck and a relaxed cut. Double-faced means two layers knitted together, so the sweater has more substance than a single-layer jumper of the same gauge. At 94% wool it will feel properly warm, and the polyamide is there to help the yarn hold up at the elbows and cuffs.
For a finer knit, the Kairon Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Beige is $730. The Ezy Merino Wool Mockneck Sweater in Navy at $380 is the thinnest layer of the group and the easiest to wear under a blazer without bulk at the shoulder.
What does the fibre mean for warmth?
Wool is the warmest everyday choice here, mohair and cashmere give the most warmth for their weight, and viscose blends feel cooler and drape more.
Wool fibres have a natural crimp that traps air, which is why a wool sweater keeps you warm and still breathes. Mohair is a smooth, long fibre with a lustre, and in a brushed knit it creates loft without much weight, so Timea will feel warmer than it looks. Cashmere is the soft undercoat of the cashmere goat and is warm for very little weight. Merino is a fine wool, usually less scratchy against skin than coarser wools, which suits a mockneck worn close to the face. Viscose is a regenerated cellulose fibre made from plant material; it drapes well and feels cool to the touch, so viscose knits are better for layering than for standing at a cold bus stop.
Which Frankie Shop cardigan should you choose?
Pick the Veda for a warm outer layer, the Mael for a sharper shoulder over trousers, and the Lupa if you want the fuzziest texture in the range.
The Veda Oversized Zip-Up Cardigan in Brown is $660 and 100% wool, made in China, in a midweight ribbed knit with a wide high neck and dropped shoulders. It is cut oversized, so it reads closer to a knitted jacket than a cardigan. Worn zipped with a scarf under a coat, it does the job of a mid-layer fleece with far better manners. A Charcoal version is also on Coveti at the same price.
The Mael Padded Cardigan in Brown is $460, made in China, in 72% viscose and 28% polyamide. The product description notes a round neck and padded shoulders, and it is a style the brand has brought back for a second season. Padded shoulders give a cardigan the line of a jacket, which is why this one pairs so well with wide trousers. Being a viscose blend, it is the lighter, drapier choice of the two new cardigans, better for indoor heating and spring evenings than deep winter. It also comes in Grey on Coveti.
For the most texture, the Lupa Fuzzy Zip-Up Cardigan in Brown is $880. Browse every style in women’s cardigans, which also lists thinner knits in Grey and Blue for layering under coats.

Which Frankie Shop turtleneck works best for layering?
A thin turtleneck is the most useful layering knit in the range because it fits under shirts, blazers and coats without adding width.
The Eve Thin Turtleneck Sweater in Light Grey is $420 and comes in a long run of shades on Coveti, from Pale Yellow and Blue to Camel, Olive and Burgundy. It is the piece to buy if you wear a lot of oversized tailoring, since a fine roll neck keeps the lapels flat. For something with more presence, the Gala Padded Knit Turtleneck in Forest Green at $570 is the more structured choice, a padded knit that works as a top on its own with a long skirt.
Knit dresses with roll necks, including the new Tilda Bicolor Turtleneck Sweater Dress in 100% wool, are covered in our guide to Frankie Shop dresses and skirts, alongside other mini dresses.
Are Frankie Shop knit vests still worth wearing?
Yes, a knit vest is still the simplest way to add warmth to a shirt without covering the sleeves.
The Villena Knit Vest in Blue is $340, and the Lizan Deep V Neck Knit Vest in Dark Navy is $300, also offered in Chartreuse. A deep V shows more of the shirt collar, which makes Lizan the better choice over a crisp white poplin.
What about Frankie Shop sweatshirts and hoodies?
The new Oda Cropped Hoodie is the standout, and the Easton gives a longer, classic oversized shape for less.
The Oda Cropped Hoodie in Grey Melange is $600 and made in Bulgaria, in a soft brushed cloth of 64% viscose, 25% cotton, 7% polyester and 4% other fibres. It has a cropped silhouette and an attached hood with an adjustable drawstring. The viscose gives it a fluid drape that a plain cotton fleece lacks, and the cropped length sits neatly over high-waisted trousers. The Easton Oversized Hoodie in Black at $340 is the longer option, also in Khaki. For a sweatshirt with no hood, the Lorcy Oversized Sweatshirt in Lavender is $380.
Do Frankie Shop sweaters pill?
Most knits pill to some degree, and the amount depends on fibre, yarn twist and how much friction the garment gets.
Pilling happens when short fibres work loose and tangle into small balls, usually under the arms, along the sides and at the cuffs where a bag strap rubs. Cashmere and soft, loosely spun wools tend to pill early in their life and then settle once the loose fibres are removed. Brushed mohair sheds a little at first and can mat if it is rubbed hard, but its long fibres are less prone to classic pilling. Blends with polyamide are stronger, which helps with wear at the elbows, although synthetic fibres can hold on to pills rather than letting them drop away. None of this is a defect; it is how knitwear behaves. Our honest take on the brand’s construction overall is in is The Frankie Shop good quality.
How do you care for Frankie Shop knitwear?
Always follow the care label on the product first, then treat wool, mohair and cashmere gently and keep viscose knits out of hot water.
- Air a sweater between wears. Wool recovers overnight on a chair, so you can wash it far less often than a cotton tee.
- Hand wash in cool water with a wool detergent when the label allows it. Press the water out gently in a towel and never wring.
- Dry flat, reshaped to size. Hanging a wet knit stretches the shoulders and the hem.
- Take extra care with viscose blends such as the Mael. Viscose is weaker when wet, so support the garment as you lift it from the water.
- Remove pills with a sweater comb, a fabric shaver set to a light touch, plus a little patience. Pulling pills by hand drags out more fibre.
- Brush mohair lightly to lift the halo after wearing, and store it folded on its own so it does not catch on zips.
- Fold knits instead of hanging them, and keep cedar blocks in the drawer to discourage moths through the summer.
- Steam out creases rather than ironing, since a hot iron can flatten the texture of a brushed knit.
How do Frankie Shop sweaters fit?
Most Frankie Shop knits are cut relaxed to oversized, so start with your usual letter size and check the product page before sizing down.
The new knits on Coveti come in letter sizes from XXS to XXL. The brand’s chart maps XS, S, M, L and XL to UK 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14, and US 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. Many pieces carry an “Oversized fit” label, and the brand gives no general advice to size down. Pieces such as Veda are meant to look generous, so dropping a size can lose the shape the knit was designed around. Read the size guide on each product page, see our Frankie Shop size guide for the full chart, and contact Coveti if you are between sizes. Coveti’s own policy for returns is on the returns page.
