There is a small hole in the left arm that needs to be mended. I’m happy to sew it myself or leave it for you to have professionally mended. Fyi what’s so special about Icelandic wool? 🤔 Icelandic wool is special because of its dual-layered fleece, consisting of a water-resistant outer layer (tog) and a soft, insulating inner layer (thel), which provides excellent protection from Iceland's harsh, cold, and wet climate. This unique fiber combination, when spun together into Lopi wool, creates yarn that is warm, lightweight, breathable, and durable. Additionally, Icelandic sheep are a purebred that has adapted to Iceland's isolation, resulting in a unique wool with natural colors and properties.
