Fösturós (Lenten Rose)

Material: 100% Icelandic wool
Meters and weight: 170m/50g per skein
Knitting size: 3 - 5 mm.

Each doll contains a simple Þingborgarlopi made from specially selected first-class lambswool. To achieve bright and shiny colors, the white lopi is hand-dyed with acetic acid dyeing, which makes each doll unique and different from the next - depending on how saturated the color is.

The name of this colour is inspired by lenten rose (Helleborus orientalis), an evergreen woodland perennial that blooms with purple flowers in early spring.
