I love using this yarn for color work sweaters, great wool at a great price. Also, a great company to order from! Quick shipping options makes it easy to get things quickly and slower options at very reasonable rates.
Needed 9 skeins of same dye lot, received in a timely manner. Thank you
Used lettilopi earlier to knit some mittens. So eager to knit another pair with a new pattern in hand. Thank you so much. Love this yarn. Quick and efficient delivery too.
Excellent
Nice and easy to buy, Quick delivery to Finland, came home in less than two weeks. Definitely will buy again when need more wool yarn.
I got just those colors of lettlopi I needed ja they came to Finland in two days, many thanks!
The yarn is exactly what I wanted. The pricing was cheaper than in the states and delivery was faster than my local craft store. I will definitely order from them again. On a side note I had planned on visiting your store on our vacation that was canceled due to coronavirus. So thank you for bringing a piece of vacation to me!
I couldn’t be more pleased. Lettlopi is beautiful (as ever), the colours are gorgeous, the yarn is soft, light and yet rustic. Lovely to knit with.
The customer service was great - they only had one ball of one colour i needed in stock, but found more from stores in Reykjavík.
The yarn price was cheaper than I can buy locally (even factoring in postage) and they have a huge range of colours.
They combined my two orders into one and gave me a refund on postage. Better still was the speed of delivery- the package took 4,days to travel from Iceland to my house in Australia. That’s much quicker than local Australian parcel post.
I highly recommend The Icelandic Store.
