Another cold one! We’ve been fortunate…it was mostly mild (of course, I do prefer the colder temperatures) right up through the new year. But now is that time of year when I WISH I HAD MORE CHUNKY TURTLENECKS! This 2-month period – Jan-Feb – is when that’s all I want to wear.

I don’t even wear cardigans as much this time of year cuz you’ve got the “open front” situation, and I want to be all closed-up and insulated in.

So the three sweaters I have in the “chunky turtleneck” category do like triple duty and then they go into hibernation again til next year.

Since they have such a small window of actual wear time, every year I’m tempted to let them go…WHY AM I HOLDING ONTO THINGS THAT TAKE UP SO MUCH SPACE THAT I ONLY WEAR 2-3 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR? And yet…TODAY is why. Yesterday is why. Tomorrow is why.

I’d like ANOTHER one. I think they’ll all make The Korea Cut cuz Seoul is, on average, slightly colder in the winter (and hotter in the summer) than NY. And I’ll be public-transporting to and from school, so out in the elements much more than now when all I do is walk to and from the car that’s parked like 100′ away.

Wanna help me pick a new sweater?? Wow, it seems like so long since I’ve bought something new! The only thing I’ve been REALLY craving is a pair of slouchy grey sweatpants for weekends. Which of these would make a good addition to the turtleneck family??
