With sweater weather in full swing, many people are turning to cashmere knits to combat the harsh winter chill — few things feel quite as comforting on a chilly November night as a cuddly cashmere sweater. One of the reasons cashmere is so popular is because it looks and feels luxurious. Unfortunately, this means that the finer, warmer, softer answer to wool often comes with a hefty price tag.
That's where Gap's ultrasoft knitwear and cashmere winter accessories come in. You don't need to splurge for style and comfort this year, thanks to Gap's range of sweaters in materials that resemble the pricey fabric. From hoodies to jewel-toned mocknecks, we rounded up the best, comparably soft products to shop online now. The best part? Everything is under $100. You'll forget all about your crush on cashmere with these oh-so-soft options.
