World Cup Sweater

World Cup Sweater is custom designed for Álafosslopi, a yarn that blends the soft undercoat of the sheep's wool with the durable outer coat. The result is an incredibly durable and water-repellent garment that withstands all kinds of wind and weather. This is the ultimate sweater for the ski slopes and snowy mountain landscapes. The Lopi yarn will keep you nice and warm even on the coldest winter days, and the garment will become increasingly soft and comfortable to wear after washing. The pattern is flexible: You can choose whether to knit the sweater with a practical low neck or a cozy high neck. The sweater is knitted from the bottom up.
