Description

Create a truly classic and elegant garment with The Icelandic Store's "Elina" Ivory/Beige Knitting Kit. Designed by the talented Norwegian designer Tove Richter, this kit empowers you to knit a beautiful, traditional Icelandic sweater dress. The unique top-down construction, combined with the single-ply Plötulopi yarn, results in a garment that is exceptionally light, soft, and comfortable against the skin.

Plötulopi is an unspun, delicate wool that creates a beautiful, flowing drape, making it the perfect choice for a sophisticated sweater dress. The kit includes all the yarn you need, with a stunning combination of Ivory Beige and Wine Red, offering a beautiful contrast that's easy to work with. If you wish to play with different color combinations, you can easily swap out the yarn colors by leaving a note at checkout. For your convenience, you have the option to include a set of high-quality ADDI knitting needles, so you can begin knitting as soon as your kit arrives. This "Elina" sweater dress is a timeless piece that showcases the beauty of Icelandic wool and Tove Richter’s celebrated design.

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.
