Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt 50g

Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt has had a huge resurge in popularity in recent years as it has been embraced by leading modern designers like PetiteKnit, Rebecca Clow and the Knit Purl girl.

Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt is a pleasure to knit with, as it's a nice solid DK, with a fabulous range of shades. Garments made of Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt are light, warm and grow softer every time you wear them. Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt is produced in Norway, is durable and pill-resistant, and garments keep their shape very well.

Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt has been on the market ever since 1938, and you have to try it to find out why it is so beloved. It is a DK weight yarn, renowned for its durability. In Norway, garments made from Peer Gynt are passed down through the generations as it has such longevity. 

Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt is breathable and rarely needs washing. Try airing your garments and spot cleaning before you decide to wash them. Garments made of Norwegian wool have a long lifespan and can remain just as beautiful for several generations. As a result, Norwegian wool can contribute to more sustainable consumption.

PLEASE NOTE:  Some of the melange shades of Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt are made from mixing natural, undyed shades of pure wool.   They can very occasionally be a bit more sheep-fragranced as a result.  If you're not a fan of this, you can put the yarn in the freezer or soak your finished garment in a vinegar solution to get rid of any unwanted aroma.  

Looking for a different shade I don't currently have in stock? Just drop me a line and I can order it in for you.

Garments made from Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt can be washed in the washing machine using the wool wash programme and a gentle spin cycle.  Gently remove excess water and dry the garment flat, preferably on top of a towel. Never use a laundry bag when washing hand-knitted wool garments. This creates friction that can cause the garment to felt.
