Experience Icelandic Wool

Ístex Lopi wool, a true embodiment of Iceland’s wild and beautiful landscape. Spun in Iceland by Ístex, the island’s only wool spinning company, this yarn is made from 100% Icelandic sheep — a breed unchanged for over a thousand years. Their fleece is uniquely adapted to the harsh climate, producing a two-layered wool that combines softness, warmth, and exceptional resilience. It’s light, airy, and insulating, naturally repellent to wind and water.

What sets Lopi wool apart is its raw, honest character. It’s minimally processed, retaining its natural lanolin and texture, which not only adds to its warmth but makes it a pleasure to knit with. Your needles glide smoothly and your hands stay soft, thanks to the wool’s natural oils.

We stock three authentic weights:

Álafosslopi - chunky and rugged, perfect for outerwear.

Léttlopi - light yet warm, ideal for all-purpose garments.

Fjallalopi - soft and fine, perfect for everyday wear.

This is wool with soul — selected for its quality, tradition, and timeless charm.
