This is a super heavyweight sweater which could easily substitute a coat! Definitely for cold weather wear. There are two small wholes (one at right shoulder, one at lower back). I think with a tiny amount of brown thread or even yarn this could patch great. See all pics. **All pre-worn items have been inspected for imperfections such as stains, rips, holes, etc. I do my best to mention or photograph any flaws. All items are sold as is and non-returnable. All pre-worn clothing will arrive clean from a Smoke Free, Cat Friendly Home. Thank you for visiting my closet. Have a Blessed Day! 🙂
