Freyr Blue Icelandic sweater (12-19) - Knitting Kit

Freyr is a classic Álafosslopi lopapeysa with a roomy, men’s-style fit: navy with a crisp patterned yoke in white, light denim and denim heather, and a doubled, folded neckband that keeps the wind out. Body and sleeves are knitted in the round, then joined for the circular yoke. The pattern gives separate sleeve lengths for women and men. Pattern 19 from Lopi book 12 (its sister pattern 20 is the black/grey Logi).
