How would you describe this wonderful Norwegian \'sweater\'?

I put the word sweater in quotes because the material isn't knit, it's woven - this shows the underside of the fabric -

Isn't this a great label? I wonder how many of these sweaters sold in Miami!

I'm sure there was a chain linking the buttons, but I don't think the lack of it is too serious

Any suggestions as far as keywords?

Thanks in advance,

Hmmm, says 'Ms Christmas' to me! Would you call that weave a 'fleece' or is it not dense enough?

Old Norse Snug Snow Sweater?

Gorgeous! I had a full-length cloak or cape made of that from Norway. I did very well with it.

I love these ethnic garments! I would use 'Fringe' also
