Plötulopi is unspun wool (pencil roving) and is traditionally used to make authentic Icelandic Lopi sweaters. It is fragile and needs to be handled delicately.

Jöklalopi is almost twice as thick as Álafosslopi. Ideal for thick chunky knitwear, blankets or rugs. Because of its bulkiness, Jöklalopi is quickly knitted, its previous name was Bulkylopi.

Let customers speak for us
Made this in a size 2 in same colours and got raves for it. Easy to follow pattern with outstanding results
Love the pattern, great service. Can't wait to have a go at my first try on a circular needle!
I have knitted the one with all the beautiful coulours, and I think it is just lovely. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it. Please pass the compliments on to designer Vedis Jonsdottir. Greetings from Norway, Margrethe Beck
Loved the pattern.
It's being knitted in different sizes for a little man who loves his penguins by various family members.
We're substituting the wool as he is a mucky pup and his clothes spend a lot of time in eashing machine land.
Beautiful pattern, which I‘ve already made four times. I have a few more planned, because everyone says they‘d like one themselves. I think it‘s one of the most popular Lopapeysa patterns, and there‘s a very good reason for that- the pattern and the colors are beautiful with the Lopi wool!
I’m knitting it in different colours, and it looks awesome!
I bought the yarn on my recent trip to Iceland, and chose this pattern for my husband. Good range of sizes. Working with plötulopi has been easy - the two strands twist as knitted off the plate and the result is strong but soft and airy. The colors remind me of Iceland’s basalt mountains and snow. Usually I am a top-down knitter but am appreciating the Icelandic method of saving the most interesting part - the yoke - until the end.
