A Lopapeysa is a traditional Icelandic sweater known for its distinctive circular yoke design. Made from warm, lightweight wool, it is often characterized by intricate patterns and vibrant colors. The wool used is typically unspun, providing excellent insulation and water resistance, making it ideal for the cold Icelandic climate. These sweaters are popular among both locals and tourists, often worn as casual attire or for outdoor activities. The Lopapeysa has become a symbol of Icelandic culture and craftsmanship, with many artisans creating unique variations that reflect their personal style and heritage.
