In this kit to make a Icelandic traditional 'Hyrna' shawl
there are 5,2oz (150g) of yarn, 3 colours . The yarn is hand
dyed with natural colours from plants from the Icelandic nature,
except for the Indígó (blue) that is imported. These green tones
Gudrun Bjarnadottír gets from using Lupin leaves and then
colouring with Indígó to get the green effect...
The Hyrna is very simple to make and might be
good for beginners. The needles (not included) are no 3,5
but the Icelandic yarn einband can handle smaller
or larger needles.The kit you purchase includes
3 skeins of yarn and a knitting pattern

You can purchase this beutiful shawl (hyrna) or make
it yourself. The yarn is hand dyed with natural colours from
licens from the Icelandic nature. The lichen Parmelia saxatilis is
what the vikings used to colour their viking garment. The
different darkness is obtained by reheating the yarn with
the lichen, sometimes for many days.
