Knitting: Noro

Noro yarns from Japan are known worldwide for their vibrant colour combinations and their use of luxurious fibres such as mohair/silk, silk/ cashmere, pure wool and silk/wool.
 
They are the creation of Japanese artist Eisaku Noro, who studied painting in Paris and draws his inspiration from nature. His aim is to make unique and beautiful yarns which appeal not only to Japanese knitters, but cross national boundaries to inspire knitters and textile artists from cultures around the world.
 
Many of the processes involved are still done by hand, with some colour combinations the result of years of planning and yarns dipped in in dozens of different dye baths to achieve their fabulous colour combinations.

Noro's multicoloured yarns fall into stripes as you knit, with the stripes changing throughout the entire ball. These combinations change each season and are rarely repeated.
