Iceland

I just joined the Ring Road 828 mile virtual challenge, starting out from Reykjvik. DAY 1. 10 miles in, made it to Mosfellsbaer.
Imagine my surprise, as an everyday knitter, I find out that Mosfellsbær was once one of the main production centers of Iceland’s wool industry.  A wool factory, founded in 1896, is still in operation today. Today some of the old buildings around the factory are used for other commercial ventures. Icelndic wool is a knitter’s dream! Here is the link to the factory: https://alafoss.is/pages/about-alafoss
