Cozy up in the ultra-cool trend of chunky knit home décor.  These fun whimsical creations are ‘haute’ right now and the timing couldn’t be better.  Winter is here so why not bring the warmth of the cable knit sweater into your home.  Roche Bobois created this incredible cable knit rug and pouf below for added warmth to their typically modern décor.

When updating with kitschy knits, don’t be afraid to mix textures.  The Jigsaw Designers encourage combining textures like the textured cable rug and the grass cloth wallpaper as seen here.

At Jigsaw, the designers thrive on finding (and setting) new trends in unexpected ways.  Cable knit pendant lamps are a perfect example of that.  Adding this touch of texture to any space will create dimension and display a fresh focal point.

Chunky knits are rich in character and look beautiful layered in any home especially the modern or rustic modern home.  Play up a cozy bedroom with chunky knit throw pillows and even a chunky knit comforter. ..though it may be hard to get out of bed on a cold morning.

Cable knits are soft and natural, so if you’re style is more contemporary and you aren’t quite ready to go there, try adding a cable knit pouf for fun or pop of color and texture, or a simple ceramic vase for a hint of the trend with a modern twist.  They’re a fun and more transitory way to try the trend.

If you’re over the top crazy for knit then add that final layer with wallpaper made to look like your favorite sweater.  Available in a variety of colors, prints and textures, knit ‘like’ wallpaper will certainly add the perfect touch to your space.

While knitting is not just for your grandmother anymore, this chic new essential is modern and very ‘now’.  Cable knit items are a fun dyi project if you have the skill.  Knitting classes are all the rage these days, so grab a class and get busy.  Not enough time on your hands?  From H & M to Horchow you can find these trends in the market fairly easily.  Get this quirky sophisticated trend while it’s cold…or well, hot!
