Attractive, stylish and very warm cardigan. Purchased for a trip to Alaska. Kept me warm and packs easily in my backpack. Appears to be of high quality.

Super Warm and Looks Good
I bought this over three years ago and love it. I wear it constantly inside and outside under a wind proof layer. It does need to have a collared shirt worn under otherwise would be itchy but that adds to the warmth. I've saved a lot on heating bills and like that it is mostly made of natural fabrics. The only thing I don't like is that the pretty gold designs started to unravel at the elbows and as they are connected I can't see how to mend the small holes that are starting to appear Still I'd get it again as nothing else is as warm and comfortable.

Pretty but doesn’t hold up against wear and tear
I bought this because I wanted more natural fibers in my wardrobe and I owned it for about a year - pros were that it was warm and cozy, and I received so many compliments on it! The cons were that the yarn was indeed scratchy - something I could get past for real wool - and the weave was quite loose, so much so that the yarn started to wear under the armpits and turning into holes. If I were a more talented seamstress, I would have mended it, but honestly, for the price and the brand, it should have been better quality - I had really expected to have this piece for a lot longer. Please make it with a tighter, more durable weave, and I might buy another one to replace the old one.

Beautiful!
Not soft, as the other reviewers have noted. However, it’s beautiful and very warm! It also has a nice shape. Love it and would buy another.

Comfortable and a good shape
I got given this two years ago, and love it, I’ve worn it a lot. I find it comfortable and a good shape. It’s now got a hole in the elbow, it’s weak there and I’m not sure fixing it will last long/ be comfortable. I want to get another one, but am disappointed it says it’s for a lifetime.

Not soft and cozy
I bought this last year for a Christmas present to myself. I have only worn it once because the wool is not soft and cozy. It is uncomfortable. II have several other items from Fjällräven that I adore and would give 5 stars too. This sweater is the only dud.

Amazing aesthetic but scratchy
I had been considering the Ovik cardigan or sweater for a while and finally purchased the cardigan. The styling is just beautiful and I adore it. I do wish the cardigan had the elbow patches like the sweater does. Unfortunately the cardigan just did not have a good fit for me and the wool was of the scratchy variety. The top seems too roomy and the waist was perfect. It almost felt/looked top heavy? Because the material is so scratchy I did not like that the collar is hard to keep down. It may have been better if it had been lined. The other thing I did not care for was how loose the weave was. If held up to light you can see right through it and I was looking for something a little warmer and substantial. This material will snag very easily and will require gentle care. Sadly this was returned.
