To achieve bright and vibrant colours, the white lopi is hand-dyed using an acid dye process. This makes every skein slightly unique, with natural variations depending on how deeply the colour develops during dyeing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe name of this colour is inspired by the flower Columbine (\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAquilegia vulgaris). Columbine is a tall and elegant perennial known for its delicate, nodding flowers and distinctive shape. It readily self-seeds and can spread widely in gardens, yet its flowers remain uniquely beautiful despite this lively nature.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e-\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWashing instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlace the garment in lukewarm water (30°C) with a mild soap and leave it to soak for about five minutes.

Because lopi is unspun wool it is fragile and needs to be handled delicately but because of the unique characteristics of the Icelandic wool it's surprisingly strong. Plötulopi can be used one thread but also in two or three threads held together or with other yarn type.\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: IS; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy is Icelandic wool so warm?\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: IS; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003eIcelandic wool has a unique dual fibre structure. The soft inner fibres (þel) provide insulation, while the outer fibres (tog) are strong and naturally water-repellent.
