Bargain hunters watch out - this is a car trip for you! Best you have as little luggage as possible with you, so that there is enough space in your car for new quality goods! A nice car tour for friends or couples.
From knitting needles to knives
A good starting point for the trip is the town of Sandnes. From Sandnes, you first drive to Sandnes Garn, located between Ganddal and Kverneland at Foss Eikeland. Here is a factory outlet with a great selection of yarns for hand knitting. They also have knitting needles, buttons and sewing accessories. Here you can make a good bargain on 2nd grade yarn, and leftover yarn and you can buy ready-knitted models. Wool underwear from Janus, cardigans, sweaters from Norlender and seal mittens from Selbu Husflid can also be found here.
Should you be in the mood for shopping kitchen items as well, you are definitely in the right place: Sandnes Garn has a separate kitchen department with products from Rosendahl, Hardangerbestikk, Høyang Polaris, Iittala, Rørstrand and Arabia. They have crockery from East India, Origo and Teema, as well as Mumi crockery and cutlery. They also have a lot of other items for the kitchen, including kitchen utensils from Joseph Joseph and Lékué, so you'll find something for everyone.

Where the sheep are doing well, the wool is the best
You haven't had enough of yarn and knitwear, have you? Spinneriet - the "yarn heaven" in Oltedal offers knitting pleasure for everyone! In 1937 the company started in Oltedal. The people here knew only too well how wool could be spun into yarn, plus there was almost inexhaustible hydropower. The sheep here were doing well and their wool was the very best.
Today, you'll find a huge selection of yarns here from brands like Gjestal Yarn, Dale Yarn, DuStoreAlpakka, Lana Grossa, GullungenYarn and Camilla Pihl Gjestal, to name a few.

Eat, drink, sleep in between shopping
It can be nice with an overnight stay and some experiences before you drive on - we recommend Byrkjedalstunet. It is about a 20-minute drive from the Spinneriet. The hotel also has a great gift shop with its own candlelight production plus a nice restaurant and an own bakery.
Not far from here, you can experience the huge scree Gloppedalsura. Follow the signs and the road behind Byrkjedalstunet. More than 10,000 years ago, the glaciers melted after the last ice age and a large end moraine dammed the former branches of the Hunnedalselva river towards Veen and Vikeså for a while, while a lake formed in the Byrkjedalsgryta depression. The terraces in Byrkjedal 240 metres above sea level still bear witness to this moraine-dammed lake today. Frost blasts caused a huge landslide in which vast quantities of blocks and stones broke out of the mountainside and came to rest on the terminal moraine.
