Spring is just around the corner (we hope), and if there’s one trend we already can’t get enough of it has to be the landscape-inspired cardigans we’re seeing everywhere right now.

A charming way to embrace your inner 'cottage-core' aesthetic, the humble cardigan’s latest revamp has naturally gone straight to the top of our payday wish list. Think fine knits with nature-inspired embroidery and chunky sweaters knitted with whimsical landscapes. Of course, the high street is already embracing the trend with Next’s latest style instantly catching our eye.

The pink cardi features a garden design, with sweet white tulips and green leaves all-over. The oversized blue and white checkerboard collar gets an instant yes from us, but we also love the pink and white striped ribbed cuffs complete with classic tortoiseshell-style buttons. So chic!

It's an easy way to add joy to your knitwear collection. And, with pale pink set to be the colour of the spring season (we’re also loving Next’s 2-in-1 midi dress for this exact reason) why not tap into two trends in one?

While the weather outside isn't exactly screaming spring, the good news is you can easily wear this style right now (and brighten the day of all those around you). Pair with burgundy jeans or a classic pair of barrel leg denim. Come warmer weather, team with an embroidered maxi skirt and a fresh pair of white trainers, or pair with a mini skirt and loafers to fully embrace a preppy look. Trust us, this will become a regular in your spring knitwear rotation.
