I guess my view will be considered contrarian, but I've had more than enough scratchy wool sweaters in my lifetime. In the last couple of years I've purchased several merino wool garments. Some of them cycling specific, but quite wearable off the bike, especially a Sugoi Wallaroo 290 long sleeve jersey. It's a comfy (non-scratchy!) jersey that I've been wearing a great deal during the unseasonably cold winter we're experiencing in Southeast Arizona. Here's a link to the Sugoi site that shows the jersey: http://www.sugoi.com/usa/eng/Products/Bike/Men/Details/1447-68301U-Wallaroo-290-L-S-Jersey
I think the vest that Rivendell is planning to source, however, is a garment that would be quite useful over a jersey for additional warmth.
