This sweater is both light and very warm. It also looks great. Indeed I am wearing it so much I fear I'll wear it out. If you wear it over a lighter sweater it keeps you comfortable for long car rides in freezing weather. Next year I hope I can find the same sweater in a different color.
This is beautiful--the photos cannot bring out the richness of the colors. This poncho is great with leggings or jeans. Easy to wear, can dress it up or down.
