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.
Spun with Noro’s signature blend of silk, mohair & wool, Silk Garden Solo is a favorite for knit garments & accessories. The worsted weight, single-ply strand has a rustic thick & thin character for a relaxed, casual look. The yarn has a wonderful wool feel with the silk adding a lustrous sheen & the mohair giving the yarn a very subtle halo.
Silk Garden Solo is dyed in a gorgeous array of saturated hues that have an interesting tweedy character.
