Sandnes Peer Gynt Yarn PetiteKnit : Atlantic 6864

A deep, ocean-inspired blue for your next knitting adventure! 🌊

Meet Atlantic 6864, a gorgeous blue shade from the Sandnes Peer Gynt by PetiteKnit collection. With its rich, cool-toned character, Atlantic is a brilliant choice for timeless knits that feel both classic and contemporary. Think cosy jumpers, everyday cardigans and accessories you'll reach for season after season.

There's a reason Peer Gynt has been a favourite with knitters since 1938. Made from 100% Norwegian wool, this dependable DK yarn has a lovely natural bounce, excellent stitch definition and the resilience to help your finished garments hold their shape. It's a proper workhorse yarn - sturdy, comfortable and made for pieces you'll want to wear for years.

Atlantic is a wonderfully versatile shade. Wear it head to toe for a confident, classic look, pair it with creamy neutrals for a fresh Scandinavian feel, or use it alongside lighter blues and contrasting colours for stripes and colourwork. It's particularly well suited to the clean lines, interesting textures and wearable designs that PetiteKnit is known for.

Peer Gynt is a non-superwash wool, so it retains the natural qualities of the fibre. It's breathable, hard-wearing and has lovely stitch definition, making it ideal for jumpers, cardigans and other garments that need to keep their shape. Whether you're knitting a favourite PetiteKnit pattern or choosing a project of your own, Atlantic is a shade with plenty of staying power.

Care instructions

Norwegian wool has wonderful natural properties and doesn't always need washing as often as you might think. Often, a good airing is enough to freshen your finished knit.

• Follow the care instructions on the yarn label.
• Use a suitable wool detergent.
• Avoid fabric softener and washing bags.
• Wash separately on a gentle wool cycle, following the label guidance, and dry flat.

Please note: Always knit a tension square before starting your project, as tension can vary between knitters and patterns. Colours may appear slightly different on screen from the actual yarn.
