Vintage Handknit Cape

Design: The cape has a distinctive wide, circular pattern around the shoulders, which is a hallmark of the Icelandic lopapeysa style.
Material: It appears to be made from bulky weight Icelandic wool (known as lopi), which is prized for its warmth, durability, and water-resistant properties due to its unique dual-fiber structure. However, there is no tag so it is unknown.
Features: Arm slits for mobility and a buttoned front closure.
Origin:1970s handmade from pattern.

Length: 43"

One size fits most.

Overall in great vintage condition. No major flaws but as seen in photos, there may be occasional pills in the yarn.
