Description

Product information "Lopi Álafosslopi - col. 0054 ash"

Lopi Álafosslopi yarn is a thick yarn made entirely from Icelandic wool for traditional jumpers and outdoor clothing. The fibre’s springiness helps cables and stranded colourwork stay well defined.

Is it suitable for a warm jumper for the colder months?

Yes, the wool keeps you warm, and you can knit a very cosy garment for cold weather. Hand wash gently: friction in warm water can felt the knitted fabric.

Will it suit my pattern, and which needles do I need?

It depends on the yarn thickness and stitches per 10 cm specified in your pattern — compare these with the specifications. Start with 7.5 mm circular needles; if the stitch count does not match, try a different needle size.

Use the number of balls given in the knitting pattern for your size; before you start, make a tension square and wash it. If you have a finer knit in mind, take a look at another Lopi yarn.
