Overview
What's in the kit
Útjörð is knitted holding two strands of unspun Plötulopi together, and its magic is in the colour changes: shades of blue — winter blue, midnight, gulf stream, marsh and two blues-blues — blend gradually into one another up the body and sleeves, finishing in a patterned yoke. Vary how you carry the two strands and the colours shift like the sea around Iceland.
