Lea/Leifur knitting kit

SKU
Lea Leifur knitting kit
Pattern Skill Level
Intermediate

A beautiful and warm wool sweater with a traditional, Icelandic wool sweater pattern (lopapeysa). The pattern is a reproduction of a sweater that used to be sold in icewear stores, but now it is possible to knit the sweater with the very soft Saga double from Iceweargarn. The pattern is quite simple and is therefore suitable for most knitters.
