I went to Iceland on a knitting trip a few years ago and learned all about the yarn, it’s super interesting. The factory, Ístex, cuts and mixes the outer wool with the downy wool so it’s both warm and water-resistent. When you work with it, keep your gauge looser than normal, otherwise it loses the airiness and you end up with a stiff garment.

[@paulette1748]

The making of a swatch, washing and drying it, and giving us feedback is exactly the type of information I want!

[@renonaharalson2343]

I really appreciate you Crystal. Now more than ever, your unboxings are so important.

[@VertDerFerkMom]

That's ok crystal

[@debralawson9367]

Hi Crystal, thanks for sharing. Beautiful colors. Have a blessed day.

[@curlygirlycreationsbylauri269]

I lived in Iceland as a child. My father was stationed there while serving in the U.S. Navy. The winters there are freezing and wool felt warm and wonderful. It's a beautiful land. Lots of sheep...lol.

[@katrinascrochethookandloops]

very pretty yarn haul crystal.Always injoy watching you unbox them. Thank you for sharing with us

[@patriciajones243]

You always find such beautiful yarn, thank you for sharing.

[@polarbear8304]

You got some different and nice yarns. Thanks for the unboxing. Have a great day and stay safe.

[@LicoricesCrochetMom]

I think your new stand worked well, you were centered and clear with overall height. Love your colour choices for that sweater.it will look gorgeous!

[@missapippin9020]

Thank you Crystal I always love to see your unboxings. I don't use any wool products being vegan I don't use any animal products whatsoever. I still love seeing the colours and the names given to the colour ways Take care and be safe love from Australia

[@susanwhalen1034]

The colors you picked will make a gorgeous sweater. Thg he ssd's stiffness of your wool reminds me of the wool hats, mittens, sc as rves and sweaters I wore as a child.

[@christinevoss6993]

Can't wait to see your review on washing and working with it. It all looks so interesting.

[@Lianne375]

I can’t wait to the sweater you are going to make. Those colors are fabulous together!!!

[@IAMvlagattuta]

Looking forward to seeing that Icelandic sweater. Those colors are gorgeous together!! Always loving your videos!!

[@cindygartner157]

I agree with your color choices for that sweater, going to be lovely!

[@sharonfabis9037]

Hey Crystal, I love that your room is full of yarn again, it gives really really happy vibe. Love the yarn unboxing! Stay safe!

[@bobbiewalker4403]

I think those three colors would make great striping for the sweater that you want to make. And yes, all five colors go very well together. You having a bad week is an understatement with everything that has quit working.

[@judymckinstry8130]

I think a sweater out of those colors would be pretty. Interesting purchase.

[@territn8871]

Very pretty yarn!! It'll make warm garments and accessories!! Hey Crystal, why don't you try softening it with hair conditioner instead of fab softener. I've always been told hair conditioner works best as it is pure sheep wool. Maybe try 2 little swatches and try fabric softener on one and hair conditioner on the second swatch and compare which is better!

[@kathyz8039]

Very beautiful yarn. Thank you Crystal

[@worldgurl6957]

Hi Crystal....thank you for sharing....I will be ordering some of this yarn. Right now my favorite is Just Wool from Hobium....so soft and easy to work with....... You and your family stay safe.......

[@deborahbarone1465]

Love, love, LOVE your unboxings! My husband says you remind him of me when I get a shipment of yarn! I love yarn! My children say there's no way I'll ever use all my yarn, but they'll be surprised at all the things I've made so far during this whole thing. Plus, we just found out there's going to be a new baby(grandchild) in December!! Thank you Crystal for all you do! Love both your channels!♥️🧶♥️🧶♥️🧶♥️🧶

[@caryneisenberg1504]

Absolutely gorgeous yarns and colors. Please share what you end up making with them.

[@deedeescrocheting4398]

I think the colors are beautiful I will make a beautiful sweater. I'm glad you're back. God bless you and your family stay safe

[@susanoeltjen]

Thank you for sharing. Such pretty colors.

[@ladonnamcghee1269]

Crystal. I get so happy when you open the box

[@teresabourgoin2948]

Hey thanks for the review! I know a lot of people who knit with the pencil roving and yes it breaks easy. Pull gently when working with it. Almost everyone I know who loves it holds it with a lace weight mohair,silk blend. It has a lot of strength to it and helps the roving hold up.

[@Marielm1]

Hi! 3 1/2 min in and I am just as excited as you sound! Thanks!

[@katibere1966]

Oh my goodness!!! All that Icelandic yarn is absolutely AMAZING!!! Can’t wait to see what you make with it!! Stay healthy everyone 🙏🏻😊

[@cynthiametcalfe6624]

I think those colors will make a beautiful sweater! I'll be looking forward to your review.

[@russellhoag4548]

You will love the plates of yarn. It's pencil roving yarn, I love it

[@angelalackmann621]

love the yarn all pretty nice to see yarn from another country i think that the first three colors would pretty for the sweater the oatmel yellow cream color together so happy to see ya and your happy unboxing

[@TrippNBalz]

Such pretty yarn! Looking forward to seeing what you create!

[@judyalbarado9975]

I love how excited you get when you open your boxes of yarn.🧶

[@patriciadouglass7141]

Watch Free Your Sheep. One of her episodes talks all about the Lopi wools. Plus she knits amazing sweaters! You can use the thinner yarn with the roving yarn for strength! Lovely video! Oh, and the wool does get softer as it mixes with the oils from your skin! Have fun!!

[@angelwilson7567]

It's Wonderful to see you! And see you soon excited. I think the colors will make a gorgeous sweater! Can wait to see it and Evelyn's top! That big skein was gorgeous! As always you never disappoint!!! I love your channels!!!! I hope all your troubles smooth over soon!

[@kimphillips2853]

I think the colors of the flat round ones look great together. I can’t wait for your reviews. Especially after you make your swatch and wash it to see if it softens.

[@elviraespinosa1260]

Hola!!! 🌷💐🌼👩Me ancanta ver la cantidad de estambres tan lindos que tienes y sin gorra también!!! Cuídense mucho

[@rebekkasigurdardottir793]

I have knitted a sweater for a one year old from single thread Plötulopi and it was so light and warm. And his two siblings used it after him, so it must have been strong too 😉 I love the colours you chose for your sweater ❤

[@mm0811]

Crystal just viewed your Icelandic yarn haul. Really loved the colours. Looking forward to seeing what Evelyn's top turns out and even the multicoloured sweater. I also love the great pink and gold yarn from Italy. Seeing you is so calming and reassuring. Love your yarn hauls. Tale care love. Be safe. Be careful. Would love a few personal words from you sometime.

[@michellechappon4796]

Those yarns are gorgeous! I bet you are going stir crazy trying to figure out which one you will work with first and what you’ll make! Or you already have plans for it all! 🥰

[@piggiesgosqueak7074]

I love seeing you so excited about yarn!

[@rosieloves5569]

Hey!🤍 so I’m from Iceland and the only thing I can say about the “léttlopi” is that yes it is really warm and it’s really good to wear something underneath because it’s not really soft.. you’ll get used to it the more you wear it. but the “lopi” just mean wool in English🤍

[@brendamccomas7882]

I think those colors would be beautiful together!

[@anitaduckworth3608]

My mother and I bought an Icelandic hooded jacket scarves and hats in the 1970s. The colors were more towards off white and shades of brown in a lovely pattern. The coat was exceptionally lightweight but warm, as were the scarves and hats. Love Icelandic wool. Great purchase by you.

[@lindawright2975]

The sweater will be BEAUTIFUL...can't wait for ur reviews Have a Great day n be Blessed❣

[@dianetaylor3443]

Love the sweater colors. My brother went to Iceland years ago & brought me a sweater back, it was very warm.

[@deborahcook1248]

webs is great! a short drive from my house. Their yarn is mind blowing. Yes wool yarn is much warmer.

[@bettyloumallet7081]

Ha ha I love how you’re excited just like a kid in a candy store! Love unboxings! Yes, those yarns will look beautiful together!

[@vanessajohnson1944]

I have some that I have gotten to make a sweater with. I can't wait to see what you make with yours and how you like it. I have brown Lettlopi. However, I am going to get some of the lace weight right away. Maybe a shawl in my future now, too. I knit...but would love to see your crochet ideas. Thanks!

[@anitakins4051]

I love all the colors...you did a great job in selecting those colors..Amber Heather is my favorite

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

I always love looking at all the different kinds of yarn. :)

[@debrashuff9404]

I think it will be beautiful. Colors lend themselves to Fall use!

[@StephEliotMakes]

Omg the grey yarn is so pretty. I am going to need to pick some up. I have wanted to try Icelandic wool as well.

[@quiltycrocheter9179]

Those colors together are beautiful.

[@wilmer4258]

Beautiful yarns!! I love wool of all kinds. My mom.made each of is kids and spouses an icelandic sweater many years ago. They are so warm and cozy!!! There is alot of yarn on those but they are so light on weight. She had been so thrilled with the yarn and cood about how her hands felt so smooth and moist after working with it. The yarn apparently is high in lanolin. They are beautiful!!! I believe the yarn softens with use. You did good and I thank you for sharing.

[@melissakeller3628]

I can't wait to see you use the little flat cake thingy. Very pretty colors. Thank you for sharing. 😊

[@NellAllen8003]

The colors are so prettying I am going to order the big yarn and I will wait until a review on the others know matter how long it takes I trust your judgment. Thanks for the unboxing.(the wall behind is looking good get it back to great)🧶🧶🧶👍👀

[@libbieshields7678]

I loved the colors you got for your sweater. I LOVED the 50% wool colors.

[@sandratanner8138]

What a beautiful yarn haul. I love it all. I look forward to your review on it.

[@chatelainmakes9830]

Love the colorway Heaven. My mother in law made a sweater for my husband when he was a teenager and my daughter claimed it so they do stand up for decades. Love the color choices of the lollies for the sweater, they look great together

[@keeponblooming5104]

Seriously fell in love with that Heaven color wool! All are so beautiful and I bet it will feel nice (warmth wise) in the middle of winter here in the Midwest (where I am) ... I think the colors will be gorgeous in a sweater can't wait to see it!

[@Kirstyglow]

They where very pretty colors for a sweater.💙🐈🌸🧶

[@gretchenbarger9183]

I'm excited to see what kind of sweater you will make! Love that color combination.

[@lisaaschermann4321]

My mom had a poncho made of this. She wore it through some VERY cold Chicago weather. I believe it softens as it’s worn. My moms was super soft

[@nathaliepenar7908]

Looking forward to see what you make with them.

[@coleenluvscrochet3391]

Hi Crystal all your yarn looks so lovely. Great choices💙🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙🦋

[@pennyhalbert1280]

The Colors that you wanted to put together would be beautiful. I am not a wool person but, I love seeing your excitement with wool.

[@GalwayCreations]

Hi crystal the sweater sounds lovely with the colors you got have a great day ❤️❤️

[@TheBeautyJournals]

This is so exciting. My partner loves Iceland and we went on holiday there a few years ago. He really wanted one of the jumpers but they were so expensive. This was before I learned to crochet and I’m been meaning to make him a jumper since then. If I had not just placed another yarn order I would have snatched this up so I’ll have to bookmark this site for the future!

[@TheBeautyJournals]

Just found them on wool warehouse so even better!

[@dannaj1370]

I am from Iceland & live there. I love Iceldic wool lopi. There is something special about this wool that is difficult to explain, but the more you work with it the more you like it. The down part is that it can be itchy for some people but is possible to line it with some satin or fleece near the skin or wear it short time. Some people knit plötulopi and einband together to make it stronger. One adwise not so many know of is to warm up the lopi in water in a pot before knitting or crochet until boiling point, let it stay in the warm water few minutes then rinse. Never rub the wool, but okay to scvese it softly. If you rub it it will felt! The heat in the pot will make the wool softer and less itchy, but will make the wool slightly thinner. It is not neccesary to wash the garmets as often as for other wool, just hang it outside few hours & it will look like it had been washed ;) When wash the garmets use low heat.

[@silvershadow013]

Halcyon Yarns in Maine is wonderful too! Icelandic wool is not soft but it's really warm! It's meant to wear something underneath it. I love it! I've used the Lopi wool and will be using it every winter!

[@patdancer985]

Loooove your unboxing videos.....🤗. At least someone is getting their yarn......🤓 Have fun with it and happy crocheting.... always keep safe 💗

[@sueanneweddell4831]

I agree with you on making a swatch and trying to see if fabric softener would work 👍🏻

[@urbanyarn]

Hey ya Crystal - thanks for sharing your Iceland Yarn from Webs - I got some Light LettLopi from LoveCraft and it sometimes is on special. I look for it all the time and got some last year for $6 Canadian per 50 grams. Beautiful yarn, but I haven’t worked them up or washed them yet.

[@debralittle1341]

Awesome an unboxing. I've been doing a lot of crocheting since we have to stay at home. Finishes a baby blanket today. Still working on two more projects. Hope everything with you and your family are doing well.

[@helenpidcock7566]

That is some beautiful yarn, I will wait and see when you use it. Stay safe. Hugs from Arkansas.

[@maggiecraig646]

I think the colors will be great together.

[@jeramyrulo6747]

Just in case your interested in buying more Icelandic wool Crystal, came back and watched this video again. LoveCrafts has the Lopi Lettlopi worsted on their Black Friday Bonanza for $5.23/ball. I just picked some up myself, so excited, this will be my first experience with Icelandic Wool.

[@c.a.campbell4789]

50 years ago, I found Lopi yarn at our local yarn store, owned and operated by a German lady, who helped me throughout my pattern selection, ordering and work. The sweater I made for my husband’s birthday was not only warm, but waterproof and he wore it for years! It is still in the cedar chest, but cold weather expeditions are well out of our lifestyle now. NOT cheap, but multigenerational if you choose classic styles.

[@donnamccormick6224]

I think those colors will go great together.

[@time2unwind537]

The pencil roving is something you can use a homemade spindle to play with putting a light spin into it to give it some strength.

[@barbaraw1327]

It tends to be strong when knitted up

[@karendinsfriend9724]

The purple and amber Alafosslopi wool were my favorites....Would make lovely scarves

[@MokkiLife]

It will be REALLY warm. I have a coat from Iceland, knit out of Icelandic Wool and with the satin lining it is a very warm jacket!

[@JHookCrochet]

I don't know why, but seeing all these European brands, which are the "normal" yarns for us here reviewed as something someone never saw before is very entertaining...

[@biancaglawan7150]

I had the Gomitolo yarn in red shades and made a hat and a shawl and it was soft and warm, and im not a wool-girl! Works up very good!😘👏

[@MsRuzzzzz]

I use Eucalan wool wash for anything I make with wool. It really softens rougher wool yarns and the lavender scent is amazing. Thanks for testing out these yarns, I've wondered about them for a long time!

[@cintiapollock2486]

micron per micron it is the warmest wool but yes deff not next to skin soft but I did order a lambs fleece and separated the guard hairs from the soft downy under fluff spun 2 pounds of it into 2 ply sport weight and made me a sweater that was nice to wear but I still needed a t shirt under but it was sooo pretty. To soften Icelandic yarn use argon oil hair conditioner in final rinse helps but the best way is to buy yarn blended with a softer man made fiber. Or to blend it with silks and other softer fibers with just 20-30% Icelandic so you still get the extra warmth : ) an spin it.

[@marywilliams9145]

It might stand on its own. Those are pretty colors for a sweater.

[@MiMi-ox8nz]

Can’t wait to see your review on these beautiful yarns. Love the colors for your sweater.

[@lollib2400]

That Italian wool(close out) was gorgeous!

[@knitpurlsquirrelwithgrannydee]

Love wool also! I think the amber and the plum color would be gorgeous together.
