UK Rights to The Lopapeysa Sweater by Joan of Dark and Kyle Cassidy Sold to Herbert Press

December 7, 2021

Joan of Dark and Kyle Cassidy have signed a deal with Bloomsbury UK’s Herbert Press imprint for a UK/Commonwealth English edition of THE LOPAPEYSA SWEATER. Earlier this year, Joan and Kyle circumnavigated Iceland’s 800-mile Ring Road in search of the country’s most iconic article of clothing, interviewing a diverse cast including those producing Iceland’s unique and coveted type of wool, fishermen, grandmothers, members of parliament, famous metal bands, and others about their beloved “lopi.” Travel tips and knitting patterns accompany each adventure recorded along the way. Look for it in the fall of 2022. North American English rights previously sold to Stackpole Books.
