Ullvøruhúsið

A wool store that ties it all together

In continuation of its rich heritage, Ullvøruhúsið maintains an atmosphere of layered history and reinvention.

Most often, you will find one of the two designers behind the counter, Sissal (of Shisa Brand) or Jóhanna (of Steinum). Occasionally Sanna, daughter of Jóhanna, or Ingigerð, Sissal’s mother will greet you though.

Jóhanna and Sissal describe their style as raw and natural whilst embracing the cosy atmosphere of the shop. The bare wood, restored walls, and natural materials complement the fashion image the brands represent.

Although very different in style, both brands are firmly rooted in Faroese quality handicraft. True to the heritage of the shop, the designs are infused with an honest passion for Faroese knitting traditions, slow fashion and quality wool.
