The special Icelandic Wool is very resistant to extreme weather conditions and yet soft and comfortable. This is due to a special characteristic of the wool of the Icelandic sheep. It consists of two types of hair: the inner hair is very soft and insulates cold, the outer hair is longer, firmer, and water-repellent. Without the Icelandic sheep, Iceland would not have been habitable for the Vikings thousands of years ago. The sheep breed is unique in the world and its wool is designed for the Nordic climate.The Icelandic Sheep Wool Hosuband is strengthened with polyamide. That makes it not only ideal for knitting socks that are supposed to last for a long time, but also sweaters, gloves, and beanies. The LOPI yarn is a natural raw material, which offers high quality on the one hand and is environmentally-friendly on the other. Energy sources, such as geothermal and water power, are used in the preparation and processing of the wool.
