vthokyLightweight summer sweater
If a pullover is what you’re after, the 5.11
PT-R Catalyst might be worth a look.
I bought one this past spring to take on an overnight hunt. It’s lightweight, non-bulky, and reasonably warm (for calm 55-degree nights). It’s got the thumbhole sleeves, which I a) didn’t realize when I bought it and b) thought were a little weird when I noticed them and c) actually like of liked when being out one cooler-than-expected night.

ridewvThanks smiling, cloister, and vthoky, those all look like good options. I have a Columbia lightweight zip fleece on order and I'll see how that is before buying a second one. I want two, one to leave in each vehicle.

A cardigan like this:

Actually that cotton one might work well. I had something similar for years and it finally wore out. Thanks!
