Amazon Links

I’m a sweater gurl! I love oversized turtlenecks, cable knits, hoodies, and fun sweaters. The thing they all have to have in common is they must be comfy and cozy. Here are 9 sweaters so comfy you’ll never want to take them off!

I’m a girl who loves her bling, but there are lots of times when I want to be casual and comfortable. This comfy sweater and jeans outfit would be great for a casual look for just about any event.

Soft Cable Longer Length Open-Front Cardigan Sweater (Medium) | Ultra-Soft Drawstring Hoodie Sweater  (Medium) |  Bootcut Jeans (Size 8) | Pointed Toe Ankle Boot  | Hoop Earrings in Gold Filigree | Diamond Dial Watch Head & Bracelet

This Ivory hoodie is super comfortable, and I love the casual style. I was a little shocked that it is such a nice thick sweater. It runs true to size, and I’m wearing a medium. The sweater is available in many colors; be sure to pay attention to the price, though, since each color is a different price. 🤷

I’m wearing the same jeans in every look. The exact wash that I’m wearing is no longer available, but I linked to the same jeans in a medium wash. I’m wearing lighter color ankle boots in today’s post, but I’ve linked to the same boots in a darker caramel color.

I am a sucker for cable knit sweaters, and this one sure delivered! I love the rich chestnut brown color; the quality is so lovely. The sweater comes with a tie belt, but I took it off since I would never use it. I’ll cut the belt loops off later, and no one will ever know. I’m wearing a medium, and it fits great. The sweater is available in several other colors.

I told you I was a sucker for cable-knit sweaters. Lol! I love this monochromatic outfit, and even though it is casual, I think it looks stylish and elegant. The tonal blue head-to-toe look is sharp looking, and it looks like you put a lot of thought and effort into your look.

Even without the puffer jacket, the outfit looks put-together.

This is another lovely, thick, quality sweater. I absolutely love the deep rich color, but the cable knit design draws my eye. I’m wearing a medium that fits great, but if you want a looser fit, size up. The sweater comes in several different colors and a couple of striped versions.

I bought this jacket in off-white, and I thought I would love it. While I loved the off-white jacket, I would never wear it for some reason. I ordered the same jacket, only in navy, and I’m much happier. It is super cute, the color suits me better, and it’s water-resistant. I’m wearing a large, and I love how it fits; it still gives me enough room to wear a sweater.

Okay, so this isn’t technically a sweater, but since I’m wearing it like a sweater, I’m including it. This fleece jacket is super soft and so warm. You can wear the jacket open with a shirt underneath or zipped like I am. This is the color purple, but the jacket comes in many different colors and patterns. I’m wearing a size large, and it fits great.

Full-Zip Polar Soft Fleece JacketCrossbody Bag

The fleece crossbody bag is from Lululemon. This is a handy bag since it holds my phone, credit cards, and a few other essentials. I used it to go shopping while walking and when we went to the water park. The fleece bag is sold out in this color, but it is still available in white.

This sweater is 55% cotton, and I know many people prefer cotton sweaters. This is a nice comfy sweater that can be worn with almost anything. It doesn’t have bells or whistles, but it would look great worn under a blazer or with a lovely scarf. I’m wearing a size large, and it fits me perfectly.

This sweater is sooo soft! I love the feel of the sweater against my skin. Can you believe it is a cable knit design? This sweater is one that you could dress up or down. It would look as good with dress pants as it does with a pair of jeans. I’m wearing the color olive, and the photo shows a little lighter than the actual color, but the image on the website shows darker than the actual color. I’m wearing a size large, and it fits me great.

This is the most casual of all the outfits. The color and the style are casual, and I changed up the boots, which are also more casual.

I love the comfy factor of this sweater, but I would have liked it to be a little more oversized. The website recommended a medium, so I ordered a large to get the oversized look. It looks like I should have ordered an XL because this is a good fit, not an oversized fit. This is the olive color, but there are other colors to choose from. I might try the dark red in an XL to see if I can achieve the look I’m after.

This outfit has a preppy vibe to it. I think it is probably the loafers that are giving me that impression.

I love this sweater!!! The color and the style are unique and make a nice statement. The quality is very lovely, too; I’m very impressed with the sweater. The sweater comes in several colors; I’m wearing the green one. The fit is excellent; I’m wearing a medium.

I love a Fairisle sweater almost as much as a cable knit sweater. The playful Nordic design is a classic print that I love. I own several Fairisle sweaters, but I think this is the first one I’ve had in blue. If you have broad shoulders, this might be a sweater you want to disregard. I’m built like a ruler, straight up and down, so this print helps to create curves for me. I’m wearing a medium, and it fits great.

I love this lightweight leather shopper bag, but it sold out before I could get it on the blog. I found this similar one made by the same brand.

More Comfy Sweaters

I love this simple but chic sweater. The length is great, and it comes in a TON of colors. It’s got a split hem and is oversized, so if you like your sweaters tighter, order a size down from the usual. This is a very soft and cozy sweater at a great price!

I don’t know why, but I just love color-blocked clothing. This feels very modern to me, but of course, if you don’t love the colors, there are many others to choose from. Unlike the first sweater, it is not oversized. Available in sizes S – XXL and under $50 dollars!

Not everyone loves a turtleneck, but I do. This sweater has so much going for it – the chunky knit, the loose fit, and the rolled edges. I’m not sure why I love this color so much. Maybe it’s the fact that we had a couch this color growing up, lol. Or it could be because it just says “fall” to me. If you don’t love it, no worries; it’s available in over fifteen others.

    Absolutely love all the different sweaters you shared. However, you didn’t mention the handbags, specifically the first one. Love that bag!

    1. Rhoda, that handbag was one I bought last year from Chico’s. It isn’t available any longer.

    Love the sweaters you picked to model for us. I really like the caramel cardigan you show on this post!

    What a line up of sweaters!

  13. I like the chestnut cardigan and the purple fleece jacket.

  14. Love the Fair Isle sweater and the pretty green turtleneck!

  16. Great sweater post! Love all your great finds! Thanks for sharing.

  17. Such great options for sweaters! I love them all. Tell Joe to hang in there. I know it’s hard to sit around when you’re used to being busy.

  18. Love all of these sweaters especially the chestnut cable cardigan.

  19. Ha! No wonder Joe is in a hurry to get back to his normal routine. I’m afraid he might look like the Imperial margarine spokesperson in the crown. I ordered the hoodie!

  20. Pam Bowling says:

    I am a sweater girl too, but I run hot which makes it difficult to wear them as I work. I do like to wear them in my down time to stay cozy. Love the green funnel neck sweater! I am a fairisle girl too.
    Great options!

  21. Great sweaters! You look great in turtlenecks, too.

  22. Cute sweaters. I’m a sweater girl too. The navy outfit looks great on you. I like the coral sweater too. I just looked at the calendar and saw that St. Patrick’s Day is on a Sunday. Earlier I said I didn’t have plans but I do. I plan to go to church and wear one of my green sweater or green top depending on the weather.

  23. Love the chestnut cable cardigan. The one in the link has buttons though. Is it the same?

    1. It is by the same brand, mine is just a couple of years old.

  24. Great post! The hoodie sweater you’re wearing has an open v neck and a split hem but the Amazon link one doesn’t show either of those features. Mistake?

    1. Julie, I think the brand updated the hoodie. It is where my old receipt took me.

  25. I bought the olive green cable knit sweater and a tan one. I lived in them in Jan with our zero temps and snowmageddon.

  26. Laura Garrett says:

    Wearing sweaters is my favorite thing about winter. That green funnel-neck looks amazing on you! Thanks for the Amazon research and choices. Sure does make it easy to choose when I know you’ve personally tried them.

  27. I love the sweaters! There is still lots of winter left in South Dakota!

  28. I love the sweaters! I never know which to buy on Amazon for there are so many choices! Thanks for narrowing it down!

  29. Great post, I love sweaters and it seems like I always have one on!

  30. Pretty shades of green

  31. Great sweater choices. I sure hope you can talk Joe into doing that “Prince Charming” reel! What a hoot!

  32. Thanks for giving us so many great options from Amazon. I love all the different styles. The long, cable knit cardigan isn’t exactly the same as the one you have on. Yours has no buttons which I like better than the one on Amazon.

    1. Barbara, the one I bought was from Amazon also. It was just last years version.

  33. I love the first outfit you have on! This is one I would wear when we have cold days..

  34. linda Shearer says:

    These are really great sweaters Thank You for the fleece and cotton options. There was a purse that I didn’t see a link for. Brown on one side black on the other side quilted in the middle.

    Thanks.

    1. That was from Chicos, and is no longer availabe.

  35. Being a fan of Faire Isle sweaters, I love the blue one you shared with us. I also love the color blocked one.
    Tania, I would love to see a blog on how you organize your closet or is that too personal?

    1. It’s not too personal, it just is a mess at all times. Lol!

  36. I absolutely love the open front cardigan! Everything looks far on you!!! My best friend’s husband has knee replacement a couple weeks ago and he’s finally driving again! Let me just say, they are BOTH very happy… Happy Friday❤❤❤

    Thanks Joanne

  38. Susan Mitchell says:

    Such cute sweaters! The cotton mock neck sweater is super cute, but currently unavailable on Amazon.

  39. Beth Cutler says:

    loved all the sweaters. wish you had included a link to the first handbag. the quilted one. great post!
