Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt is a traditional and popular Norwegian wool yarn. Peer Gynt is a real classic yarn, because it has been knitted since 1938. Norwegian wool is durable and tight, which is why the clothes keep their shape beautifully even through the generations. Peer Gynt feels pleasantly light on the skin and it softens after each use.
Sandnes Garn's Peer Gynt wool yarn is available in several delicious shades and is perfectly suited for traditional and long-lasting Norwegian and Icelandic knitwear, blankets, beanies, scarves and mittens. There are plenty of instructional ideas for this yarn from, among others, the PetiteKnit collection. You will recognize the colors made in collaboration with the designer PetiteKnit from the PK prefix.
Using clothes and accessories knitted from Peer Gynt wool yarn is environmentally friendly, as the wool breathes well and therefore does not require frequent washing. Instead of washing, airing is recommended.
Sandnes Garn is Norwegian, Northern Europe's largest producer of hand knitting yarn and one of the world's most popular yarn brands.
