Ístex Plötulopi

Ístex Plötulopi is a classic unspun plötulopi yarn made from 100% Icelandic wool. With an approximate length of 300 metres per 100 grams, it offers a warm, lightweight texture with excellent structure. As a plate yarn, it comes in thin sheets that are easy to pull from and knit single- or multi-stranded.

Usage
Perfect for jumpers – especially traditional Icelandic designs – as well as warm hats, mittens, and shawls. Can be used alone or held with other yarns for varied textures and colours.

Product benefits

• Light and insulating: Warmth without bulk thanks to the airy wool
• Plate yarn format: Supplied as plates, ideal for flexible strand combinations
• Ideal for colourwork: Wide range of shades with crisp definition

Tips for use
Handle gently due to the unspun structure – broken threads can easily be joined by hand. Use single strand for lightness, or multiple for density. Great for felting and hand knitting.

Why choose this yarn?
