Lopi Plotulopi, Worsted/10ply, 100g, 300m

Plötulopi is a one-ply, unspun yarn made from 100% virgin Icelandic wool. Despite unspun yarns being typically fragile to knit with, thanks to the length of the fibres in  Plötulopi, knit soft yet sturdy sweaters and other winter warmers with this gorgeous yarn. 

Plötulopi can be worked one, two or more plies at a time, depending on how bulky a yarn you want. Gently wind the required number of strands together into a ball by taking the end from the centre and the end from the outside of the plate, or plates.

We recommend the continental knitting technique as it permits control with very loose tension.
