Description

This Sami inspired outdoor sweater, Čoarvegiella Winter, is a spacious and thick sweater. It is knitted from the bottom up. The pattern is inspired by the lasso ring used in reindeer herding. The Sami word Čoarvegiella (pronounced tshåarvegjella) means lasso ring in Norwegian. There's plenty of room for wool underwear under the sweater. Good luck with your project, and happy hiking.
The sweater design is made by the Norwegian designer Christina Gjertsen, under the name of Sisu Knitwear. This violet sweater is knitted by Elisabeth Knedal.

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.
