Designed by the celebrated Védís Jónsdóttir, this all-inclusive kit provides everything you need to create a cozy and durable garment that beautifully embodies the raw beauty of the Icelandic landscape. The name "Skriða" translates to "landslide," reflecting the sweater's strong, earthy design.

Jöklalopi is a fantastic choice for those who love the rustic look and feel of traditional Icelandic wool but want to complete their project more quickly. The kit includes the pattern in English and enough Jöklalopi yarn in the elegant Dark Grey shade to create a size L sweater, ensuring you have ample material for your chosen size (S, M, or L). For your convenience, you have the option to add a full set of knitting needles to your order.

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.
