Description

Afmæli — the Anniversary sweater — is a modern classic lopapeysa: a sheep-black Léttlopi body crowned with a joyful multicolour yoke in eight accent shades. Body and sleeves are worked in the round, then joined for the circular yoke. The pattern gives separate body and sleeve lengths for men and women.
