Sandnes Garn Tynn Peer Gynt

Peer Gynt has been on the market since 1938. Due to its unique structure, the yarn is excellent for knitting sweaters. Peer Gynt remains just as popular today as it was back then. In the fall of 2022, we launched a thinner version of the exact same yarn with the same great properties. Garments made from Norwegian wool feel light and warm. With each wear, they become even softer. Norwegian wool is durable and resistant to pilling. It ensures that the garments always look good and retain their shape for a long time. Consider the environment: wool is breathable and rarely needs washing. Instead, we recommend airing out the garment well. Norwegian wool garments have a long lifespan. They maintain their beauty over several generations, which means that Norwegian wool contributes to sustainable consumption.

For Peer Gynt and Tynn Peer Gynt, the same fiber is used and produced in different thicknesses – Tynn Peer Gynt is 3-ply twisted, while Peer Gynt is 4-ply.

There is a pattern booklet for Tynn Peer Gynt from Sandnes Garn, No. 2212.

Note: For machine washing, we recommend washing all wool items separately on a wool wash program to treat them as gently as possible. Spin gently and dry the garment flat, preferably lying on a towel. Never wash hand-knitted items in a laundry net/wash bag, as this creates friction that can cause the item to felt.
