This Norwegian Quarter-zip Wool Sweater even LOOKS warm!
Enjoy the timeless style, durability, and warmth of pure wool in this Norwegian sweater by Devold, the oldest manufacturer of knitted goods in the country, in business since 1853.
Around $250
One of my favorites from last year is this Wool WWII Military Sweater.
Wool and cotton twill in a classic military mechanic’s sweater. If it was good enough for them, it’s good enough for me!
Part of standard-issue military wear during WWII, sweaters like this olive wool pullover were popular among servicemen for comfort, durability, and easy pullover warmth. The shawl-collar style buttons up to cut the cold just as it did onboard aircraft carriers in the ’40s. Cotton twill canvas-reinforced elbows add durability. In Navy or Olive.
Under $150.
Going walkies? This Scottish Wool Walking Sweater will come in handy!
The walking sweater is a tradition in the British Isles that dates back more than a century. This classic outdoor style uses 100% Shetland wool fiber for its warmth and natural moisture-wicking properties. Built to withstand Scotland’s vigorous, often fast-changing weather, it has suede patches at shoulders and elbows for durability and reduced wear and tear from backpacks or camera straps. Crafted in a 19th-century mill on the banks of the Annick Water in rural Ayrshire, Scotland.
Under $200
