Bulky Hoodie
Embrace the winter chill in style with our cozy hooded pullover, designed specifically for those living at 42º North latitude, just east of Lake Erie. With snowy winters and frigid air gusts, this knitting pattern offers an essential layering piece that combines comfort and functionality for anyone facing the cold.
This versatile pullover features a loose and boxy fit, making it easy to wear over turtlenecks and, in the most extreme winter conditions, even over another sweater. The long sleeves are thoughtfully designed to allow you to pull your hands inside for extra warmth, while snug cuffs effectively block biting winds. The tapered hood provides a streamlined fit around the neck, minimizing excess fabric for those who prefer to wear scarves snugly. Additionally, the generous size of the hood allows it to fit comfortably over bulkier winter hats, ensuring that you stay stylish and warm.
Crafted to give an oversized fit for an XL/1X woman, this hoodie is perfect for anyone looking to combine practicality with chic winter fashion. Not only will it keep you insulated during the cold months, but it will also become a staple in your wardrobe.
