it& #39;s the reading sweater https://twitter.com/EmilyRNunn/status/1306625021931028480">https://twitter.com/EmilyRNun...
a reading sweater is different from a wine cardigan in that a wine cardigan is 1) unflattering in length and meagerness of material 2) sticks to your butt in a way nobody loves 3) is pinterest inspo for women who wear "rose all day OK???" tanks
a reading sweater is thick and chunky and made of the kind of yarn you imagine a husky boi sheep spent his whole life growing, it can be a cardigan but it needs to hit at the hip or just below...no longer...bonus for leather-covered buttons or a balloon sleeve
things a reading sweater can be:

2) an old land& #39;s end men& #39;s fisherman sweater that swallows you like the maw of a whale and LOOKS like it should be too scratchy to wear but somehow is NOT
3) old laura ashley 1980s intarsia cardis that are ALMOST grandmotherly but are spared from that fate by vibrant colorways
