Description

Dawn was the inspiration for Uppstytta: it’s morning and the fog lingers by the sea while rays of light try to break through. A boat neckline, swingy back and wide sleeves with gathered cuffs give this Léttlopi lopapeysa a modern silhouette — here in a calm blue-grey palette of stone blue, black sheep, chocolate, rust and apricot.

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.
