This is a fresh take on the traditional Icelandic sweater known as the lopapeysa. These sweaters are traditionally knitted using unspun, undyed yarn, known as lopi so they are usually made in combinations of neutral colors. They are knitted top down in the round and have a loose fit.
12 knitting patterns for modern sweaters from Swedish designer, Marita Clementz. Made with yarn from Iceland, Sweden and Norway, these sweaters are as cozy and warm as traditional Icelandic sweaters but with fresh, bright designs and colors for a brand new look.
