Absolutely stunning vintage hand-knit wool pullover featuring an elaborate Icelandic Lopi-style circular yoke design.
This substantial sweater is beautifully knitted in rich heathered brown with ivory and soft powder-blue Nordic colorwork around the neckline, hem, and sleeves. The matching geometric borders and dramatic circular yoke make it an exceptional statement piece.
The sweater has no tags of any kind and appears to have been individually handmade rather than commercially manufactured. Based on its coarse, wonderfully warm, and unmistakably woolly texture, the fiber is believed to be genuine natural wool, likely a rustic Lopi-style wool. Because no material label is present, the exact fiber content and country of origin cannot be independently verified.
Its seamless-style circular yoke construction, substantial weight, hairy texture, and traditional patterning are all characteristic of classic Icelandic-inspired hand-knit sweaters. This is an exceptionally warm garment best worn over another layer, particularly by anyone sensitive to traditional wool.
Estimated to fit approximately a men’s Large or unisex Large/XL depending on the desired fit. There is no size tag, so please compare the measurements below with a similar garment that fits comfortably.
