After the onset of cold weather, the question immediately arises of what to wear warmer. In women's and men's wardrobes there is always a warm sweater that will keep you warm all winter. However, how can you understand that this is definitely a sweater and not a jumper, sweatshirt or pullover? After all, all these products are so similar to each other.
Sweater as a type of clothing
A sweater is a warm item, most often hand- or machine-knitted with a collar and long sleeves. The product is found in both women's and men's wardrobes. Pairs well with various accessories and other clothes. The main difference between this model and other products is that it is knitted from natural or synthetic threads. They can be with patterns or ornaments.
Its main feature is the presence of a collar. If a product does not have a stand-up collar, then it is no longer a sweater. The length of the women's model can be completely different, while for the men's product it should be standard.
There are several types:
- Scandinavian is a voluminous product made from natural fabrics.The material must have patterns and geometric shapes. Usually available in white-red or black-blue colors.
- Irish is a chunky knit sweater with voluminous geometry. Made from natural merino wool.
- Scottish - classic models with striped patterns. Feature: when knitting, only two primary colors are used.
- Lalo is a female model, made from voluminous braids of one color or with a transition from one shade to another.
In addition to the main differences, the sweater has its own characteristics.
Features of the material
A high-quality model must contain at least 75% wool. The remaining 25% are synthetic impurities. Sweaters are usually made from natural wool, cashmere, mohair or alpaca. There are also stylish cotton and silk options.
If it is not possible to purchase things made from natural materials, you can always find a good alternative made from synthetic fabrics. Cheaper models are made of synthetics or acrylic. They also look beautiful and are softer to the touch.
Features of the cut
This thing has its own cut features. Firstly, the model must have a neck (the length and width may vary). Secondly, most often there are no clasps or buttons on the product. But in the new lines you can find non-standard design solutions with such decor.
The sleeves should be long or 3/4, loose fit. The length of the male model is classic to the waist. Women's options can be either long or short. Tight or baggy.
A sweater is a universal item in the wardrobe that will appeal to many fashionistas. It is comfortable to wear, warm and soft. It is comfortable to walk in it for a long time, which is important when choosing things.
