Lopi Alafosslopi

Alafosslopi is a bulky weight, single-ply yarn spun from 100% Icelandic wool.  Sturdy, warm & durable, the yarn is ideal for outdoor garments, accessories & blankets.

Spun from 100% Icelandic wool, Lopi creates hand knitting yarns that possess outstanding breathability & thermal insulation.  For over 1,000 years, sheep in Iceland have been roaming the sub-arctic climate.  Their adaption to the climate has given their wool a distinctive character.  The fleece is a combination of inner & outer fibers with the inner fibers being soft & insulating, while the outer fibers are long, durable & weather resistant.  Together the fibers create a yarn that is warm & durable.
