I tried to post a link to my entry on the subject of adult tomten sweaters, but it didn't work...here's the link: (as in, I want to knit one)

There are photos and directions in Opinionated Knitter--one with the hood and one with a collar. I think it looks okay on adults but you'd probably want to add in a little waist shaping to keep it from getting too boxy.
