SOME DAYS you just want to pull the covers over your head and hibernate for four years. But inevitably work demands your attention and you’ve got errands to run, book clubs to attend and holiday shopping to face.

But in the face of the cold winds of this election and its after-effects, our best clothing advice is to hunker down in the comfort of a cozy sweater. We’ve chosen eight we think you’ll like, plus a sweater dress for head-to-toe coverage.
