Peer Gynt has been on the market since 1938, and its structure makes it a popular yarn for knitting traditional wool sweaters. Peer Gynt remains as popular today as it was then. Garments made from Norwegian wool are lightweight, warm, and become softer with each wear. Norwegian wool is durable and pill-free, and its superior resilience ensures that garments retain their shape over time. Be environmentally friendly! Wool is breathable and rarely needs washing. Instead, we recommend airing your wool garments. Garments made from Norwegian wool have a long lifespan and can remain as beautiful as they are for generations. Therefore, Norwegian wool can contribute to more sustainable consumption.
For machine washing, we recommend washing all wool garments separately on a wool cycle to ensure gentler treatment. Spin the garment well and dry it flat, preferably on a towel. Never use a laundry bag to wash hand-knitted wool garments. This creates friction that can cause the garment to felt.
