There’s no denying that sweater season has officially commenced. Even if the weather can’t seem to make up its mind, I’ve made up mine: It’s fall, and I’m going to dress like it. It goes without saying that everyone’s favorite chilly-weather garment is the chunky sweater. Simply put: Words can’t explain the way the best fall sweaters (which as perfectly cozy and comfy) will make you feel. Personally, if I could fashion a sweater from my favorite blanket, I probably would. (Once I learn to sew, it’s over for these all y’all.) Until the spring thaw begins, you know what I’ll be wearing. Here, shop 11 of the most stylish chunky sweaters for the season. And once you’ve seen all of those and want more, you can shop the best sweaters on Amazon, too.
