Questions about this piece
How do you wear a sweater with an animal motif without it looking novelty?
Let it be the only thing in the outfit with a picture on it. A motif reads as charm when it sits in quiet colors and as a costume when it is bright and surrounded by other patterns, so plain jeans, a solid tank underneath and simple shoes are what carry it. Color does most of that work: the further the motif sits from primary brights, the more it behaves like a texture. The horses here run in neutral tones, which is the easy end of this.
What is the difference between a cardigan and a pullover?
The front. A cardigan opens all the way down and fastens; a pullover goes over your head and does not. That changes what each one is for. A cardigan comes off halfway through the day without taking your hair with it, and it can hang open or be buttoned shut, which are two different looks out of one piece. A pullover is one decision, made when you put it on. This one closes with buttons up the front under a V-neck.
Why is this sized S/M and M/L?
Because it is cut relaxed, so one size covers two. S/M and M/L are the two here, and with the shoulder seam dropped past your own shoulder, the size you take is mostly deciding body width and sleeve length rather than where the shoulder lands. It has ribbed trim and patch pockets on the front, and on a cardigan this easy the pockets are where your hands end up anyway.
