Sweater Weather

Sweater Weather.
The time when the air is crisp and cold, but the snow has not yet fallen- 
when I see an abundance of styles-
wool,
cotton,
fleeces, 
patterns of diamonds, hearts,
and intricate flakes of snow, 
skiers and mountains, 
pale colors, dark, deep colors- even neon, or sometimes pastel-
such a wonderful diversity, I see in sweater weather. 

Sweaters show personalities-
flashy, bold- that person must be confident!
or perhaps detailed,
carefully sown- I guess they have an appreciation of beauty!
Before you even know their name, a persons sweater can tell you so much about someone. 
But that's not all!

Sweaters tell a story-
perhaps one has symbols, patterns- what could they mean?
They are there for a reason, I think...
or maybe pictures that tell a story, 
or even holes ripped in the soft wool, worn from years of age- passed down through generations, I'd assume- I wonder who wore that one- perhaps royalty! 

Sometimes I think that sweaters are like people-
all different,
yet the same in many ways.
