A zipped collar lets heat out without taking off your thick wool jumper.
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.
Bear in mindMore volume traps air but needs space beneath an outer jacket.
Under a ski jacket
ChooseFiner, closer-fitting jumper
Bear in mindSleeves and underarms should lie beneath the outer layer without thick folds.
Hut and everyday wear
ChooseComfortable knit and neckline
Bear in mindTry the fabric at your neck, where a roll or stand-up collar touches your skin.
What to look for
Question
In brief
Why
Which wool?
In briefCheck the feel
WhyWool fibres do not all feel alike. Try the jumper over the shirt or base layer you intend to wear with it.
Which shape?
In briefCheck chest and hips
WhyA close fit should provide warmth without pulling when you raise your arms. With loose knit, check how the hem sits beneath your jacket.
How should I care for it?
In briefFollow the label
WhyChoose detergent, temperature and drying method as instructed. Do not hang a heavy wet jumper from a narrow hanger.
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.
