Overview
What's in the kit
Forseti is a classic Icelandic lopapeysa from Lopi book No. 12, designed by Astrid Ellingsen: grey heather Álafosslopi with a bold yoke in white and black sheep, matching pattern bands at hem and cuffs, and a doubled, folded rib collar. Body and sleeves are knitted in the round, then joined for the circular yoke, with separate sleeve lengths for women and men — an easy unisex fit.
