Spanning 35 years and nearly 1000 designs, The Best of Lopi celebrates the tradition of the Icelandic yoked sweater with updated sizing, colorway choices, and clearly illustrated techniques. But the color patterns are only the beginning. For easy-to-wear, quick-to-knit Arans and simple textured knits, look no further. As you knit, in one color or many, enjoy the photographs of Iceland, meet the people behind the yarn, and plan your next Lopi sweater, jacket, or hat.

Think of The Best of Lopi as one big, extended family of sweaters with a wide range of options. Some are closely related, others share little more than a name. You'll be able to see family resemblances, but you'll be just as suprised by the diversity. And, since the sweaters have so much in common, you'll be able to borrow a pocket from one or the tunic shaping from another, as you knit your favorites.

Whether shape, garment detailing, or color is your interest, The Best of Lopi will stimulate your creativity within the security of a strong tradition.
