Selir is an Icelandic unisex sweater knitted in Léttlopi. The sweater features a detailed multi-colored pattern with seals, waves, and seagulls across the yoke, as well as matching patterns at the hem and cuffs.
The pattern has a long history and is inspired by seals resting on black sand, crashing waves, and high-flying seagulls. The body and sleeves are knitted in the round from the bottom up and joined to form a round patterned yoke.
