  1. Well, something went awry. I got “Your Ex’s Sweater That You’re Never Giving Back.” I have no exes as I’ve never been in a relationship (too busy trying to get myself together).

    • FWIW I got the same answer and also don’t have any exes, but I am a firm believer in the idea that the comfiest sweaters are ones that are borrowed/stolen from someone else, so that’s how I’m interpreting it. 🤷

  2. I got Elbow-Patched Masc Sweater.

    I feel like this captures my personality pretty well, because I’ve applied actual elbow patches to actual holes in beloved sweaters.

    But the queer sweater that I usually wear is a cardigan. Christina’s style thief on how to dress like Cate Blanchett in Tar inspired me to upgrade to cashmere a couple years ago.

  3. My ex’s sweater! Which I in fact have, and it was a hand me down from her grandpa which is not the only item from an ex’s grandpa I happen to have. 😭 Very butch4femme of me lol.

  4. OK, so I re-took the quiz and got Floaty Cardigan.

    “Sometimes also called a duster, the long, flowy cardigan signifies someone who enjoys the subtle luxuries of life, like a small treat before dinner or a scented candle in the bathroom or a perfect pair of tiny espresso mugs. You are a free spirit not to be pinned down.”

    TBH, I was hoping for the cashmere sweater but I’ll take floaty cardigan!
