We know that people have been weaving sweater-like garments for centuries. The first common use of what we recognize as sweaters today was among fishermen in the early 19th century. They were knitted by their wives to keep them warm while at sea, and treated with oil to provide water resistance. This was especially common around the island of Jersey in the UK, hence the name jersey.\u00a0<\/p><p>They gained widespread popularity in the 20th century. Hollywood actors helped make them fashionable, and their practical application saw them used in military uniforms in World War II. By the end of the \u201860s, everyone owned a sweater.\u00a0<\/p><p>Nowadays, the most popular type of sweater is probably the hoodie. Created by Champion, known as Knickerbocker in those days, it was first used in the 1930s to protect factory workers and athletes from the cold. It gained popularity in the \u201870s when hip-hop emerged, and by the \u201890s could be seen all over the world.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-94c71fb elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"94c71fb\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-77bea36\" data-id=\"77bea36\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9971f2d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9971f2d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What Are the Different Types of Sweater?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96f2724 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"96f2724\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The different names themselves are not the best way to categorize sweaters.
