made in Norway

Made in Pure New Norwegian wool, Peer Gynt entered the market in 1938 and has since than become Sandnes flagship yarn quality and one of Norway's best known yarns. The need for a rougher and better fitted DK weight yarn led to the development of Peer Gynt, made of long stable wool fibers. This makes it perfect for felting projects as well as warm winter garments.

  • sandnes garn

    The largest producer of hand-knitting yarn in Northern Europe, Sandnes Garn's mill is both one of the oldest, and most up-to-date, spinning factories still running. Their focus is on taking good care of everyone involved in the production of their yarn, both animal and human, and they produce some of the most reliable yarns available on the market today.

  • mulesing free

    Mulesing is a controversial farming practice used, predominantly in Australia, to prevent the parasidic infection flystrike. While mulesing prevents infection, it is a very painful procedure for the animal to endure, and more humane alternatives exist. This practice is banned in many areas of the world. If a yarn is marked as mulesing free, that means that no animals were treated this way during the production of the yarn.

  • wool

    Wool is a textile fibre produced by the shearing of sheep. The breed of the sheep, where it was raised, and how the fibre was treated after shearing can all affect the final characteristics of wool. While some is quite harsh and rough, other wool can be luxuriously soft and squishy. As a fibre, wool is very good at trapping heat, and is one of the few fibres that stays warm even when wet.
