I would somewhat recommend this, but with the forewarning that 1) it doesn't look as nice as it appears in the photo (torso is somewhat short and arms are pretty long), 2) it is not as plush as it seems (thin layer of wool), and 3) is fairly warm and scratchy compared to most wool sweaters I have. Am not hugely disappointed in the purchase; but, had this been the sweater I had expected, I would have gotten several of them, and in various colors (but, the one I bought will be enough).
