Arctic Armor functions as frosty chainmail to protect you from the harsh winter elements. The sweater is worked from the top-down in garter stitch with a subtle slipped stitch detail running along the body, sleeves, and raglan seams and features a slightly oversized fit with bracelet length balloon sleeves. Guaranteed to keep you warm and cozy while still looking like an elegant snow queen.
