Product Details
Heima is the Icelandic word for “home”, and this lopapeysa got its name because its palette of warm and cool neutral shades are those of the Highland landscape in which I live. The main yarn colour is especially evocative of the rich, stout-brown peat which nourishes the heather moorland around my home, and which provides a deliciously pungent fuel for the fire in colder months.
Construction: Heima is seamless and worked from the bottom up, starting with the classic texture of a Moss stitch hem. The plain stocking stitch sleeves and body showcase the natural beauty of the undyed Black Sheep colourway; worked separately, they are joined at the underarm. The stranded colourwork yoke pattern originated as organic shapes and was a lot of fun to puzzle out. It adds a cosy double layer around the chest and shoulders and is topped off with a Moss stitch neckline. A few stitches of underarm grafting are all the finishing required.
