John Smedley have been designing, creating, and manufacturing the world’s finest knitwear at their factory in Lea Mills, Derbyshire, since 1784. Over a period of 230 years, many of our designs have remained relatively unchanged save a few careful refinements at the hands of 50 fine British craftsmen. Here, you'll find a hand-picked edit of our most popular women's knitwear. Ranging from our iconic Emma sea island cotton jumper to our classic Letty roll neck in extra fine merino wool; if you only purchase one piece of knitwear per season, make it one of these. The garments on this page are customer favourites; purchased time again. They all boast timeless silhouettes and colour palettes which transcend seasons and trends effortlessly. Whether you’re using them to build a capsule wardrobe, or simply to add more versatile pieces to your existing repertoire, our bestsellers are long-lasting, stylish, investments in your personal style.
