Jersey

What is a "jersey"?

A jersey is a type of knitted garment that is typically made of wool or cotton and is designed to be worn as a sweater. It is often characterized by a close-fitting, stretchy knit with ribbing at the cuffs, collar, and hem. Jerseys can come in various styles, from simple and classic designs to more elaborate ones featuring patterns, graphics, or other embellishments. They are popular in colder weather as a warm and comfortable layering option, and are commonly worn casually or for more formal occasions depending on the style and material.
