Is this sweater warm enough for winter?

It is a chunky knit pullover with a hood, so it works as a warm mid-layer or a light outer layer in mild cold. In hard winter weather you will likely want a coat over it.

It is a pullover knit, so it is meant to sit close to the body with some ease for layering. Check the listed measurements against a sweater you already own if you want a looser fit.

Can I wear it under a jacket?

Yes, but the hood and chunky knit add bulk at the neck and shoulders. A roomier coat will be more comfortable than a slim one.

How should I care for a chunky knit like this?

Hand wash or use a gentle cycle in cold water and dry flat to keep the shape. Fold it rather than hanging it, which stretches knit shoulders.

What is the Nordic pattern?

It is a traditional Scandinavian-style geometric motif, usually worked across the chest and sleeves. Here it gives the sweater its cabin and ski-lodge look.
