Einband is a Lace weight yarn made from 100% Icelandic wool, ideal for knitting delicate sweaters and shawls, among other gorgeous garments, with a lovely, natural warmth. As this yarn has some stretch and is expected to shrink after washing, we recommend preparing a sample to wash and block to first determine the precise gauge and needle size to use in your project. Following washing, Einband becomes beautifully soft. 

Note: Projects made from Einband stretch and are therefore difficult to measure until they have been washed. Be sure to check your gauge before and after blocking.

Gauge: 30 sts to 10 cm (4 ") across St st using size 2.25mm/US 1
Gauge: 17 sts to 10 cm (4") over St st using size 4.0mm/US 6
Gauge: 15 sts to 10 cm (4 ") across Sts using size 6.0mm US 10

Plötulopi can be worked one, two or more ply at a time, depending on how bulky a yarn you want. Gently wind the required number of strands together into a ball by taking the end from the centre and the end from the outside of the plate, or plates.

This one-ply wool is an unspun yarn. Due to the length of its fibres, Plötulopi is perfect for making durable yet soft clothing items. For example, you can use it to make sweaters, winter hats or beanies. We recommend washing this yarn by hand. Plötulopi is certified according to the Standard 100 OEKO-TEX® label.

Gauge for 1 ply: 19 sts to 10 cm (4”) over St st using size 4½ mm (US 7).
Gauge for 2 ply: 14 sts to 10 cm (4”) over St st using size 5½ mm (US 9).

100% new wool. Unspun yarn, sold by weight as a one-ply, flat, round roll, which is called a “plate”.
