No sweater... it's supposed to be in the 80's today. I'm wearing a dark orange linen shirt... untucked... with dark vintage washed blue jeans and my Borns. Cause it's rainy I have my Electric Blue Marmot Precip anorak with me.

Not *that* low! I'm at work. LOL. And no, it isn't the type of sweater you can wear a blouse under.

not a big sweater fan, unless it's cotton or silk.... I can't wear wool--I'm allergic and it makes me itch (no matter how soft!)

Plus, I'm almost always warm, so I prefer to wear lighter-weight sweaters... Chenille is also nice, but it leaves too many fuzzies everywhere... :-)

My favorite sweater was one I found while on vacation up in Wisconsin, ya hey dare!

The place was like a head shop. Could have probably scored some weed if I asked. The owner brought back a bunch of heavy wool sweaters from Chile. They were made by some Indian tribe, the main source of income for the people.

It is so thick I have ony worn it onece while out splitting wood in single digit temps.

I got rid of my favorite sweater years ago, because I now live in Florida and not Michigan. It was a cashmere/angora blend, incredibly warm and sofy and fuzzy. I miss it, especially since I always go to the Smokies during the cold months!

I had a relative, not on my side of the family, that likes to mention if she sees you wearing something twice in a picture, even if the pictures are within the same month. She even mentioned that this little girl had the same dress on in pics that were taken on two different days. That is really tacky to do.

I could have said to her, "atleast I don't wear sweatshirts with Disney characters on them like you do", and she was 30 years old.

You guys could put a wood stove in that house Nic. It is very easy and not too expensive.

Cheap source of heat!

Wool IS itchy... that's why you wear polypro under it! LOL

LOL-- I'm always warm, so Wool tends to keep me too warm-- I usually prefer Cotton, silk or acrylic sweaters to Wool... and I hate "cotton/Ramie"-- they look like crap after 1 washing! (essentially sweaters made of cardboard fibers!)

is this thread considered "stuff" (and therefore SWELL approved) or "nonsense" (and therefore EBA-SNOTT disapproved)
???

Or both? or what?
I'm so confused!

I bought a sweater almost exactly like that from an Amry Surplus store a couple of years ago for about $10. $50 is a rip off.
