Vintage 1980s Icelandic Lopi Wool Cardigan Hand Knit Nordic Sweater L Womens

Authentic late-1980s Icelandic hand-knitted lopi wool cardigan, handmade in Iceland by the Handknitting Association of Iceland. This is a true heritage Scandinavian piece, not a modern reproduction. Designed with a classic Nordic circular yoke pattern in natural wool with red, black, and charcoal accents. Heavy, rustic 100% pure new wool (lopi) provides exceptional warmth while remaining breathable and durable. Originally produced as a unisex/men's garment, this sweater wears beautifully as an oversized women's cardigan, offering a relaxed, cozy fit that layers easily. Finished with original metal Nordic rosette buttons and traditional hand-knit construction. ⸻ Details • Era: Circa 1985–1990 • Origin: Iceland • Material: 100% pure new wool (lopi) • Color: Natural / cream with red, black & charcoal pattern • Closure: Original metal Nordic buttons • Knit: Hand-knitted • Size tag: None (see measurements) ⸻ Women's Fit Best fits Women's Large to XL for an oversized look (Please compare measurements for preferred fit) ⸻ Measurements (laid flat) • Bust (pit to pit): 20.5" • Length (collar to hem): 26.5" Approx. 41" bust circumference ⸻ Condition Very good vintage condition.
