"Lopi" means "roving band" in Icelandic, and "létt" means "light[weight]", as it is about half the weight of the thicker Alafosslopi. LéttLopi is made of two plies slightly twisted together. It is beautifully light, warm, and water-repellent, and makes wonderful hats, mittens and sweaters. Finished items rarely require cleaning other than the first wash to soften the fibers - from then on a thorough airing out is often enough.
