What is a "grand-pa" sweater?

Maybe I didn't hear this right but when the Clark's shoes rep was on with Jane I thought I heard her say these boots would look cute with a "grand-pa" sweater. Now...I've heard of boyfriend sweaters....but grand-pa?? Please enlighten me.

I don't know what it is either, but you made me think of Macklemore's "Thrift Shop"

Perhaps she means a sweater like what we used to call an ""Andy Williams sweater?"" Like this...

I tend to think of grandpa sweaters as cardigan sweaters that are longer in length (like boyfriend cardigans) with shawl collars.

That's sort of what I visualized. Just never heard the term.
