Design: Hélène Magnússon
The Reindeer Moss Tam is knitted with airy Plotulopi in 4 colors plus 2 balls of Love Story Einband, held together to capture the palette of Iceland’s landscape. The most cheerful of toppers, a lovely design by Hélène Magnússon. This kit will give you at least two tams, maybe three, when you alter the order of colors for subsequent tams.
