WoolDreamers Manchelopis Unspun Yarn – The Woolly Thistle

In a single-strand, this unspun wool knit directly from the wheel is wonderful for lace or sweaters. Work with 2-ply for typical Icelandic jackets, scarves, hats and mittens. Or 3-play and 4-ply for coats and blankets.
BREED: 100% Wool from Manchega Sheep    PACKAGE: ~100 gram plate FINISH:  Unspun WEIGHT:  252 yds/100 grams, DK  CARE: Hand wash; lay flat to dry.   Manchelopis is delicate because it's unspun, but don't let that put you off. Carefully unwind your wool from the plate (never tug) to knit your stitches before unwinding the next lot. Should your wool break, simply overlap the two ends and twist (spit-splice) them back together and carry on. Once knitted, the yarn is strong yet soft! Manchelopis is wound into plates with 2 plys, making it a DK weight yarn. It could be separated to knit just 1ply, then doubling your yardage as a Light Fingering weight.  The Manchelopis light grey, medium grey, and dark grey, while named greys by WoolDreamers, these natural shades have brown tonal qualities.   Please remember that every effort is taken to represent the true colors of the yarn and that monitor settings will vary.

Hinrika Yarn Set in WoolDreamers Manchelopis by Sofia Izaguirre

A delightfully lightweight and airy pencil roving, Plötulopi is traditionally used to make authentic Icelandic Lopi sweaters. This historic product can be used as both yarn and as spinning fiber. Due to the nature of this yarn, it has no twist and is technically a pencil roving and must be worked up with care as it is delicate. Plötulopi is usually knit holding 2-3 strands together, this method creates exceptionally warm garments that are breathable and fluffy with a soft wool halo.
