Istex

Ístex is well-known for its quality Icelandic wool yarns Álafosslopi, Léttlopi, Bulkylopi, Einband and Plötulopi. The Icelandic wool yarn or Lopi yarn is a product with long tradition. All Lopi yarns are manufactured from high-quality Icelandic wool. Icelandic sheep wool consists of two types of fibers: the inner layer is soft, fine and insulating, while the outer layer consists of long, shiny and water-repellent fibers. Together these fibers create a yarn that is lightweight, water-repellent, breathable and warm. Lopi yarns are the only material for authentic Icelandic sweaters.
