Fjallalopi is the new member of the Lopi family! It is half the thickness of Léttlopi.
Fjallalopi is a sport/ light DK weight yarn spun with 100% Icelandic wool. The single-ply yarn has a heritage feel & is ideal for lighter garments such as cardigans, sweaters, hats, cowls & mittens. Rustic & durable, Fjallalopi is very well suited for stranded color work patterns. A yarn for wool lovers, it is easy to work with & softens the more it is worn & blocked.
Based in Iceland, Lopi expertly 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.
