The Skógafoss Lopapeysa is inspired by one of Iceland’s beautiful waterfalls. It has a slightly cropped body, perfect for high-waist jeans and skirts, and a simple, yet interesting, colorwork yoke.

Body and sleeves are knit separately, bottom-up and in the round, then joined at the yoke. This sweater features a folded neckband for extra warmth. You will use one strand of Hip Wool and one strand of Hip Mohair throughout the project.
