Tynn Peer Gynt is the fingering weight version of Sandnes Garn's reliable Peer Gynt, carrying the same qualities into a finer gauge. 100% Norwegian wool spun tightly to minimize pilling, it's a practical, affordable fingering weight with good stitch definition and honest warmth. The tight construction makes it particularly well suited to colourwork, where crisp stitch edges matter, and to textured patterns where you want the stitches to hold their shape. Not as soft as a merino, but excellent for outerwear, accessories, and colourwork projects. -- or for those who don't mind wooly as a characteristic. Hand wash recommended.
