Book 26
Pattern 9

• The pattern in the book calls for an unspun Icelandic wool called "Plotulopi", not available outside Iceland, which is sold by weight as a one-ply, flat round roll, called a "plate". It is knit using a loose tension with one, two or three plys at a time, depending on how bulky a yarn the knitter wants. This design calls for a mix of 2 and 3-ply "Plotulopi" and the book recommends substituting Lopi for the 2-ply and Bulki Lopi for the 3-ply. To obtain the proper match of colours, our yarn kits include the equivalent weight of Lopi Lite and 2 or 3 strands can be combined to get the proper weight by doing a test swatch and comparing it to the gauge information in the book.
