Peer Gynt has been on the market ever since 1938, and the structure of the yarn makes it a favorite for knitting traditional kofte sweaters. In the autumn of 2022, Sandnes Garn launched a thinner version of exactly the same yarn, with the same properties - Tynn Peer Gynt. Garments made of Norwegian wool are light, warm and grow softer every time you wear them. Norwegian wool is durable and pill-resistant, and its superior resilience ensures that garments keep their shape over time.
The same fiber is used in both Peer Gynt and Tynn Peer Gynt, but in different thicknesses - Tynn Peer Gynt is a 3-ply yarn and Peer Gynt is a 4-ply yarn.
