Great, traditional yarn - easy to work with, gorgeous color variations, gets better and better with use and wear.
Love this yarn!
I am making my husband an Icelandic style cardigan, using a pattern by Rebekka Kristjánsdóttir. I really like this yarn. A bit rustic and prickly, although I think a good bath of Eucalan and hair conditioner will help. However, it's meant for an outer layer so should not be a problem. Knits up really quickly, being a bulky yarn, also I'm having more luck with colorwork in this yarn than with worsted or DK because it's so fat and hairy--easier to carry the floats without puckering. I have finished steeking and am on the button band (so the sweater in the photo isn't quite finished). I have so much yarn in my closet that I don't really need any more (she says), but I am fantasizing about an Álafosslopi sweater for me! I certainly recommend this yarn for the right project.
Make mitts (warm) just what everyone needs
No. Stop bothering me just for shopping online.
Love the yarn
Wonderful sturdy wool. Great for felting/fullering!
It’s pretty much the same as the old Reynolds Lopi that I knit with in the 80s. Great stuff! Great Icelandic sweaters!
It’s Icelandic Lopi. It’s the same as it was 40 years ago when I first used it. It’s like Cascade 220 or Lamb’s Pride or Spindrift. It belongs on the periodic table of yarn elements. AND the best news? It had t been ensh!t!fied. Yet.
Love this yarn!
