Melissa LaBarre’s Nome is a hooded cardigan that’s warm and cozy enough to fall into the outerwear category. Thick and soft in two colors of chunky-weight Puffin, fastened by two toggles at the chest, and worked in garter stitch, this neck down raglan is warmth personified, and the very thing for those days where you question whether you need a sweater AND a coat (answer: Nome is what you need).
