Sandnes Peer Gynt Yarn : Mint Green 7911

Sandnes Peer Gynt - Mint Green 7911

A fresh, softly muted green for your next knit 🌿

Sandnes Peer Gynt in Mint Green 7911 is a fresh, gentle green with a lovely clean quality that makes it incredibly easy to wear. It's soft and understated rather than overly bright, making it a beautiful choice for a whole jumper or cardigan, as well as a useful shade for stripes, colourwork and smaller pops of colour.

Peer Gynt is made from 100% Norwegian wool, giving it natural warmth, resilience and that satisfyingly proper woolly feel. It's a hardworking yarn with excellent stitch definition and good shape retention, making it particularly well suited to garments you'll want to wear again and again. Norwegian wool is naturally durable and resistant to pilling, while knitted garments become softer and more comfortable with wear.

Mint Green is one of those wonderfully versatile shades that can go in lots of different directions. Pair it with cream, natural and soft grey for a fresh Scandinavian palette, combine it with deeper greens and blues for something more tonal, or use it alongside pinks and berry shades for a prettier contrast. We think it would look especially good in colourwork, where its gentle freshness can really lift a more traditional Nordic palette.

A dependable Norwegian wool with beautiful stitch definition

Peer Gynt has been a Sandnes favourite since 1938 and is particularly good for knitting garments that need to cope with proper everyday wear. Its structured woolly character gives excellent definition to cables, ribs, textures and colourwork, while the natural fibres provide warmth, elasticity and resilience.

Yarn details: 100% Norwegian wool; 50g ball; approximately 91m per ball; recommended needle size 3.5-4mm; tension 22 stitches = 10cm. Wash separately on a gentle 30°C wool programme and dry flat.

Whether you're planning a fresh spring-green jumper, a cosy cardigan, some colourful Nordic colour-work or a few everyday accessories, Sandnes Peer Gynt Mint Green is a wonderfully useful shade paired with a seriously dependable wool. Fresh colour, proper wool and plenty of knitting potential - what's not to like?
