Knitting with Icelandic Wool contains everything you need to know about Icelandic wool and knitting in Iceland. The book comprises 65 patterns for women, men and children chosen in collaboration with Iceland's largest wool manufacturer, Ístex. The book mainly features the classic Icelandic lopi sweater and other popular garments, but there are also patterns for smaller projects such as woolly hats, socks, mittens and scarves.

The history of knitting in Iceland, from its origins to the present day, is told with an emphasis on the emergence of the Icelandic lopi sweater, as well as the growth of the Icelandic wool industry.

Knitting with Icelandic Wool is a great book for knitters looking for exciting patterns knitted in Icelandic wool, and an informative and entertaining resource for all who have an interest in the history of handicrafts.

Okkar ástkæra íslenska ull – Sígildar lopapeysur og saga ullarinnar –

Prjónað úr íslenskri ull er mikill fengur fyrir áhugasamt prjónafólk sem þyrstir í klassískar og fallegar uppskriftir að flíkum úr íslenskri ull en jafnframt fræðandi og skemmtileg bók fyrir alla sem hafa áhuga á sögu handverks og ullar.

Í bókinni er að finna 65 uppskriftir sem valdar eru í samstarfi við Ístex. Margar hverjar eru áður ófáanlegar sígildar uppskriftir og aðrar nýrri með nýtískulegu ívafi. Áherslan er lögð á lopapeysur en einnig eru uppskriftir að smærri viðfangsefnum eins og húfum, sokkum, vettlingum og treflum. Segja má að í bókinni sé að finna úrval vinsælustu íslenskra prjónauppskrifta í gegnum tíðina.

Í bókinni er einnig í fyrsta skipti rakin á einum stað saga prjóns á Íslandi, allt frá upphafi til nútímans. Sérstaklega er litið til uppruna íslensku lopapeysunnar auk þess sem fjallað er um íslenskan ullariðnað.

Bókin kemur einnig út á ensku og er því tilvalin gjöf fyrir erlenda gesti og áhugafólk um íslenska ull.
