DESCRIPTION: The hand knitted sweater of Icelandic wool, or as the locals call it - lopapeysa - has become one of the symbols of Iceland. Traditional unpainted wool comes in five colors - black, white, brown, gray and beige. The Icelandic sheep, which have lived in the same area for more than a thousand years, have adapted to the extremely harsh local climate and sub-Arctic climate, so their wool is made up of two fibers. The inner wool fiber is fine and soft, and the outer is longer, strong and shiny, making it water resistant. This combination provides excellent protection against cold climates.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Icelandic wool pullovers rarely need to be washed, first try to ventilate the sweater in the fresh air. These lopi sweaters can only be washed by hand in lukewarm water (30 ° C / 86 ° F). Soak the sweater in water and use only a special wool detergent. Do not rub or wrap the sweater! Squeeze the water gently. Leave the sweater to dry completely on the towel in its original form. Do not hang a wet sweater as the weight of the water will stretch the wool.
