Notes:- 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 2-ply "Plotulopi" and the book recommends substituting Lopi so our yarn kits include the equivalent weight of this yarn. The knitter can do a test swatch and compare it to the gauge information in the book.
