Let’s be honest: wool is a liar. It promises “soft warmth,” then proceeds to attack your neck like a tiny, fuzzy gremlin. I’ve had wool sweaters that felt like sandpaper made of grass.
Polyester, on the other hand, is a velvet pillow in comparison. It’s smooth, it’s gentle, and it doesn’t make you look like you’re having an allergic reaction every five minutes.
You can wear a polyester sweater against your bare skin and not want to scream. Try that with a cheap wool scarf, I dare you.
