The new long awaited Icelandic wool yarn is here! Istex Fjallalopi is the perfect choice for knitting projects that crave natural woolen feel and warmth. This high-quality Icelandic yarn is spun from 100% Icelandic wool, making it both durable and a natural choice. Fjallalopi is a Sport weight yarn, similar to Aran weight Lettlopi, know for its warmth, durability and lightness, making it an ideal choice for a variety of knitting projects, such as Icelandic sweaters, yoked pullovers, stranded knitting / colorwork sweaters.
Fjallalopi yarn offers a new fantastic opportunity to create unique knitted garments. If you need a second layer, more light weight pullover for indoors, a sweater for children that is not too hot, Fjallalopi is your choice over its heavier weight siblings LOPI Alafosslopi and Lettlopi. What we love is its slightly coarse texture that gives knits a rustic and natural look. Additionally, the single ply wool yarn easy to work with and knits up fast to a fabric that is both warm and looks great year after year. In addition to sweaters and pullovers, Fjallalopi is suitable for a variety of knitting patterns, such as knitted mittens, scarves, and accessories.
Istex Fjallalopi is available in a wide range of beautiful and nature-inspired colors, perfect for various stylish knitting projects. Whether it's a minimalist gray and white and natural color project or a vibrant playful colorwork knit in a rainbow of colors, you'll surely find the perfect shade for your style.
Icelandic wool Fjallalopi is also an ideal choice for environmentally conscious knitters, as it is produced with respect for sustainable development principles. Icelandic wool comes from local sheep farmers, and its production aims to minimize environmental impact.
