Looking for woolen products from Iceland?Woolen Products from IcelandThe Icelandic sheep, like the Icelandic horse, has remained a pure breed since the settlement of Iceland. Through centuries of harsh, volatile climatic conditions, these gentle creatures have formed a unique type of wool, characterised by a soft, insulating inner layer and a longer, water-resistant outer layer. The utmost care is taken in the processing of the wool to leave its natural oils intact, resulting in soft and lightweight woollen products which have a mohair-like feel.
The most popular wool product is probably the lopi sweater, renowned for its exquisite warmth and traditional Icelandic knit patterns. These patters were originally created using only the natural colours of the wool, which with Icelandic sheep means brown, black, grey and off-white, but in recent years more colourful, dyed versions have gained in popularity. Other ever-popular woollen products include coats, mitts, hats, scarves and socks, in all sizes and colours.
