Oversized only works when the seams agree to it. Cut a normal sweater larger and it hangs wrong at the shoulder; cut it with the seam deliberately halfway down the arm and the whole thing falls the way it is supposed to.
The shoulder seam here sits low and visible, running across the upper arm as a design line rather than a construction accident. The turtleneck is wide and folds over once, deep enough to pull up over the chin, and the ribbing at the cuffs and hem is substantial enough to gather all that width back in at the edges.
It is the sweater that makes a room feel colder than it is, purely so you have a reason to put it on.
