Noro yarns embrace the Japanese philosophy of accepting & enjoying the non-uniformity, unevenness, & natural beauty of nature. All animal fibers spun into Noro yarns come from certified organic farms around the world. The yarns are as eco-friendly as possible with many processes still done by hand or on traditional machinery. Showcasing Noro's signature blend of Corriedale wool, Merino wool, silk & mohair, Tasogare is a gorgeous light worsted yarn that will let creativity blossom. With a subtle thick & thin quality, the soft yarn knits into colorful sweaters, cardigans, wraps & accessories. Each unique colorway plies multi-hued strands together to deliver exquisite color changes as you knit. Tasogare ("twilight") features undyed dark brown wool which gives the yarn a deep, more muted palette. Each ball has over 400 yards for uninterrupted knitting.
