northern Light
Nordlys is a beautiful sweater with fresh colors that should imitate the play of colors of the Northern Lights over the sky.

You will find Istex Letlopi knitting yarn here.

Nordlys is a winter/autumn sweater, knitted on needle size 4.5 in Lettlopi, a beautiful, loosely spun yarn of 100% pure Icelandic wool. The yarn is insulating, water-repellent and breathable, perfect for year-round clothing in the Nordic climate.
Clothes knitted in Lettlopi are soft and delicate, at the same time much lighter than many other woolen yarns.

The sweater can also be knitted in Norwegian wool, e.g. Vidde or Varde from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.
