The Strathtay knit pullover is a WARM sweater! It finally turned cold enough in Northern Virgina to give the sweater an acid test (feels-like temp minus 5 degrees with a gusty wind of 30-43 MPH winds, actual temp low 20s). I wore the sweater outside under a light shell for a few hours while moving firewood. I was perfectly comfortable the entire time. The sweater fits like a second skin. The write-up description of how it drapes is right on. This sweater is worth every dollar it costs. It is also my opinion that the person who knitted it should be declared a national treasure. It is definitely a wearable piece of art. The Strathtay knit cap is now my official go-to cold weather cap. It is much warmer than the wool U. S. Navy issue watch cap. I recommend this cap to anyone who spends any time outdoors in very cold weather
