Maternity Knitwear FAQs
What is maternity knitwear?
Maternity knitwear includes sweaters, cardigans, knit dresses and other knitted pieces designed or selected to comfortably accommodate a changing body. Look for soft, flexible fabrics and silhouettes that provide room through the belly without sacrificing personal style.
How should a maternity sweater fit?
A maternity sweater should feel comfortable through the belly without pulling or restricting movement. Depending on your style, you can choose a more fitted knit that stretches with your bump or a relaxed silhouette with additional room to grow.
What knitwear is best for layering during pregnancy?
Cardigans, lightweight sweaters and relaxed knit tops are particularly easy to layer during pregnancy. Open-front cardigans are especially versatile because they don't need to accommodate your bump through the front and can continue to be worn postpartum.
Can maternity knitwear be worn postpartum?
Absolutely. We look for adaptable knitwear that can remain part of your wardrobe after pregnancy. Cardigans, relaxed sweaters, knit dresses and flexible silhouettes can transition easily into postpartum and everyday wear.
How do I style knitwear during pregnancy?
Pair sweaters and cardigans with maternity denim, comfortable trousers or skirts for an easy everyday uniform. Knit dresses offer a simple one-piece option, while a cardigan can add warmth and texture over tees, tanks and dresses.
What should I look for when buying maternity knitwear?
Consider fabric feel, stretch, length and how the garment accommodates your changing shape. Versatile silhouettes and quality fabrics can help you get more wear from a piece throughout pregnancy and after baby arrives.
