About Icelandic Wool Sweaters
I love sweaters and have ordered handknit sweaters from the Handknitting Association of Iceland for more than twenty-five years. The Association was started in 1977 and is composed of hundreds of Icelanders, mostly women that knit for a hobby and to supplement their income.
This is one of the few places in Iceland where you can purchase authentically made icelandic wool sweaters. I have ordered sweaters online and they have always come promptly, beautifully made and have always exceeded my expectations. This website also sells wool and patterns if you want to knit your own sweater.
From Handknitting Association of Iceland |
The sheep that dot the Icelandic countryside are direct descendants of the sheep brought there by settlers in the 9th century and much like icelandic ponies they are a unique breed. Like their ancient forefathers, Icelandic sheep have fleeces that are divided into two layers, the long and coarse hair of the upper layer that repels water and the lower layer with shorter, softer hair making them perfect for insulation. These two layers, called lopi are combined producing a thread that is light and warm but also tough and water proof.
