Women's wool sweaters and knitwear
The wool sweater is a truly great piece of apparel– the unique properties of wool have kept this material popular for centuries. Lanolin, a type of grease found in sheep's wool, forms a built-in protective layer within the wool fibers. Wool regulates temperature fluctuations and is warmer when wet compared to synthetic fibers. Wool is a renewable and ecological natural product, and a quality wool sweater will serve you for many years.
One of wool’s greatest advantages is its sustainability: wool, which is regularly harvested from sheep, is a renewable material and causes no issues when it returns to nature.
A wool sweater works as a warm layer in the layering system for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, and a patterned knit is also a very stylish choice. Throw on a wool sweater as the summer evening cools, or wear it as the outermost layer when you don't need protection from the wind.
If you have suffered from itchy wool garments, check out merino wool products. Merino wool fibers are much finer and smoother at a microscopic level compared to regular wool. This allows most people to wear merino wool garments, even if regular wool causes itching.
Our favorite manufacturers include Devold, Ivanhoe, Holebrook, Fjällräven, and Supernatural. Order your new favorite wool sweater from a Nordic specialty store – Scandinavian Outdoor delivers products right to your doorstep if needed!
