Sandnes Garn Tynn Peer Gynt

Sandnes Garn Tynn Peer Gynt – 100% Norwegian Wool

Sandnes Garn Tynn Peer Gynt is a sturdy and durable yarn made from 100% Norwegian wool. It is the thinner version of the classic Peer Gynt yarn and an excellent choice when you are looking for a high-quality wool yarn for sweaters, cardigans or colourwork knitting.

Tynn Peer Gynt is a 3-ply yarn with a firm structure that creates a clear and well-defined knitted fabric. It works beautifully for cables, textured stitches and colourwork. Norwegian wool is naturally warm and breathable, while its firm fibre structure helps knitted garments retain their shape over time.

Wool does not necessarily have to feel at its softest straight from the skein. Tynn Peer Gynt becomes softer with use and washing, making it particularly well suited to long-lasting knitted garments. Norwegian wool is also durable and naturally resistant to pilling.

Tynn Peer Gynt is not superwash treated, so the yarn retains the natural properties of the wool. Finished garments should be washed as gently as possible and dried flat. Often, simply airing out a woollen garment is enough instead of washing it.

If you like Peer Gynt but are looking for a slightly thinner yarn, Tynn Peer Gynt is an excellent choice. Both yarns are made from the same Norwegian wool fibre, but Tynn Peer Gynt is thinner and has a 3-ply construction.

Neuletikki tip: A woollen garment usually does not need to be washed after every wear. Air your sweater after wearing it and wash it only when it really needs it – this will help your garment stay beautiful for longer.
