Description

Tove Richter designed Arnar for her husband: he wanted a long sweater, not too many colours, and a masculine pattern. The result is a clean two-colour Léttlopi lopapeysa — here spring green with the yoke in ocean blue (this sample was knitted by Berit Borg). Tove Richter is a Norwegian designer who knits almost exclusively with Icelandic wool.

Good to know

Knitting kit questions, answered

I've never knitted a lopapeysa — can I manage a kit?

Many of our customers knit their first lopapeysa from one of these kits. Choose a one-colour or simple-yoke design to start, and warm up with our free patterns. Stuck mid-project? Write to us — we knit these ourselves.

What exactly is in the box?

The knitting pattern and the genuine Ístex lopi yarn for the design. On most kits you can add needles as an option at no fuss.

Which yarn do the kits use?

Most use Léttlopi — the classic lopapeysa yarn — while some designs call for Álafoss Lopi, Plötulopi or Einband. Each kit page says which.

Do US orders pay customs on delivery?

No — duties and taxes are settled at checkout, so nothing is due when the parcel arrives. No customs bills, no courier fees.
