Guide

Women's wool jumpers

Chunky wool feels warm during breaks, while finer knit fits more easily under a ski jacket. Compare knit thickness, neckline and how the wool feels against your skin.

Key points

  • Chunky jumpers need more room beneath a jacket.
  • An opening collar helps when moving between indoors and outdoors.
  • Wash wool as labelled and dry without stretching its shape.

Common questions

Can I ski in chunky knitwear?

It can serve as an insulating layer if it fits comfortably under your jacket and does not make you too hot. Thin layers are easier to regulate during hard activity; chunky knit often feels better during breaks.

What if the collar feels itchy?

Try a smooth vest or base layer underneath and compare softer yarns. A larger size is unlikely to solve scratchy or uncomfortable fabric against your neck.

Is a roll neck warmer than a crew neck?

It adds coverage around the neck. Overall warmth also depends on thickness, knit and your other layers. A zip lets you enlarge the opening as you warm up.

How do I keep the jumper's shape?

Wash only as directed and gently reshape while damp. Dry flat if instructed and avoid hanging wet knitwear by its collar. Rucksack friction can encourage pilling on softer yarns.
