Mosi sweater
From € 6,85
I guess I just wanted to disappear in the moss… After the Mosi mittens and the hat, here is the Mosi sweater that reminds of the thick and spongy moss (mosi in Icelandic) covering the old Icelandic lava fields. Knitted from the top down in a wide range of sizes, this light yet warm sweater is knitted with a pleasant stranded knitting motif and my very soft Icelandic lambswool yarn, Gilitrutt.
Yarn used: Gilitrutt Tvíband ; you could also use Grýla Tvíband or Einband Ístex

The Mosi Mittens, with their lovely colors, were a fresh take on a type of traditional stranded mittens with little motifs ensuring that the fabric stays warm. Then I made a matching hat, and now a matching sweater in the same colors of the Icelandic moss.
Not fan of the green? Many lovely colors have been combined to knit some hats and mittens: be inspired by the 20 colors of Gilitrutt available!
