Uniqlo has a great selection of Merino Wool Turtlenecks that are perfect if you are looking for a garment for layering, as most of their styles tend to be very fitted.

This L.L Bean turtleneck is an exciting combination of cotton with a little bit of cashmere thrown in. It isn’t always the easiest to find a cotton sweater, so this style is very popular for women who dislike wearing pure wool. Since this sweater is primarily cotton, it means that it will be nice and soft while still being reasonably durable. It is also a jersey knit, so that helps to make it even smoother.
You can put this turtleneck right into the wash, no need for dry cleaning or hand washing here. It has a slightly fitted shape so that you can wear it on its own or as a layering piece. It doesn’t come in the broadest range of colors, but you can get it in most of the basics.

For those women who are looking for good quality, reasonably priced wool sweaters with a less fitted look to them, you should check out Woolovers. The key selling point of this brand is the prices are very reasonable for the high-quality natural fibers that you are getting.
Their turtleneck styles change from year to year, with their latest being a cashmere and merino blend, so it is going to be soft and lightweight, yet very warm. It comes in eight beautiful colors to choose from. This style is more of a mock neck than a full turtleneck, but mock necks are lovely because they give you a lot of warmth without the fold-over than can sometimes be a little bit too much on some styles.

The Treasure & Bond Drape Turtleneck Sweater is an excellent style if you are looking for a slouched, comfy style that will keep you cozy during your day. It is a super soft-style made from cotton, polyester, and nylon with a touch of wool.
If you are looking for comfort, this may well be the sweater for you. It has a relaxed, somewhat boxy fit that is stylish, although not for everyone. This option is relatively lightweight, but it still manages to be warm because of the fiber mix. The actual neck part of the sweater has a loose fit, so it isn’t super tight around your neck. You can dress this design up or down, so it’s also really versatile.

An excellent place to get a decent sweater for work is the Banana Republic, which usually has pretty good wardrobe staples like comfy turtlenecks for the winter. Many of their sweaters are made from soft fabric blends, so they are smooth and easy to wash and wear.
The only thing I’ve noticed is that sometimes the necks on their fitted turtle necks can be a little tight so so if you like a comfy fit, check out some of the oversized styles that have a loose fit on the neck.
