About this sweater

The Yarn

This sweater uses 8 different colors. The body is anthracite grey (not black), four shades of grey plus the white are used to render the ice layers, and the blue ice requires two shades of blue.

The yarn used is Icelandic plötulopi, you can read more about this yarn here.

Handknitted

All sweaters are handknitted in advance, so that they are ready to ship.

Each sweater takes me one to two weeks to knit, including a first wash so you can wear it right away.
