Hreindýr — the Reindeer sweater. A ring of reindeer circles the yoke of this classic Léttlopi lopapeysa, here in soft ash grey with the pattern picked out in white and black. Body and sleeves are knitted in the round, then joined for the circular yoke, and the doubled, folded collar keeps the winter wind out. The pattern gives separate sleeve lengths for men and women.
