The Icelandic knitwear is unique and very famous for its quality sweaters. The traditional knit sweaters or cardigan sweaters (Lopapeysa as the natives calls it) are very popular among Icelanders, both man and women wear it at work or as a sportswear. The hand knitted wool sweater will last for years. It should be only hand washed from lukewarm water. Trevelnet offer many style and knitting patterns for man‘s wool sweaters.
The Characteristics of the Icelandic wool are unique:
It has two types of fibres:
INNER FIBRES - INSULATING: Fine, soft, highly insulating.
OUTER FIBRES - WATER-REPELLENT: Long, glossy, water-repellent.
Together, these two distinctive fibres create wool that is:
Lightweight - lighter than most other wools, keeps you warm and comfortable.
Water-repellent - repels rain and stays feeling dry.
Breathable - moisture passes through the fibres away from the skin, keeping you dry and comfortable.
