And now for something completely different ……. test your imagination !
Plötulopi is unspun wool and is traditionally used to make authentic Icelandic Lopi sweaters. It is fragile and needs to be handled delicately but by twisting it it with a fine yarn will give it added strength and stability.
Plötulopi is mostly knitted using two or three strands, resulting in garments that are exceptionally light and airy. Plötulopi is surprisingly strong once knitted thanks to the unique characteristics of Icelandic wool.
Gently wind the required number of strands of Plötulopi together or knit straight from the plates.
