  • Warm, hand knitted woolies, made in Iceland. They provide the perfect covering in even the most inclement of weather. More importantly they provide the perfect foreground interest for the dramatic Icelandic landscape. I’ve included a photos on Mia top few so you can see just how great they look in the landscape …. They aren’t cheap but like most things in life you get what you pay for and these are very good value for money given how much each is an individual labour of love. Friendly, helpful staff will ensure you get the perfect fit. They are also very relaxed about trying on as many as you need to make sure you’re happy.
  • Great place to find your Icelandic sweater (and other knits and yarn). Good selection. Have to dig a bit to find the perfect pattern and fit
  • If you want your Icelandic jumper to be 100% handmade in Iceland, you must visit the handknitting association. Many of the designer shop jumpers aren’t made by local people but from countries using mass production techniques. Friendly helpful staff. You won’t be disappointed
  • Very friendly and helpful staff. And, of course, wonderful sweaters. And everything woolen.
  • Best place to buy authentic Icelandic wool items and wool. The staff is so friendly! They helped us choose the best wool to bring home and even showed us how each one smells depending on how it was processed. Lovely place.
