Tensan, the Japanese word for “silkworm,” honors the ancient origins of silk — a fiber treasured for its strength, sheen, and timeless luxury. Blended with fine wool, this yarn brings together warmth, resilience, and a glowing softness that feels indulgent against the skin. Each generous 150-gram skein (328 yards) is dyed in Noro’s unmistakable palette, where deep earth tones merge with radiant bursts of color. The flowing gradients and vibrant contrasts reflect Noro’s philosophy of drawing inspiration from the natural world, transforming every skein into a gorgeous landscape of fiber.
Akari is a soft, worsted weight multi fiber blend that features organic silk and cotton. Translated to "light" or "glimmer" in English, the silk adds a beautiful sheen to this yarn. It is a delightful choice for knitting and crocheting multi-season garments.
Mrs. Knits knitted it in a shell tank top using several different yarns to test out the patterns. Akari is a favorite of hers because the designs are simple to knit and very stylish. The colors have a white-wash effect.
Saiun is the rainbow effect of the mist between glowing clouds. Constructed with many colors like its big brother ITO, the end result is an unforgettable array of saturated hues. Each ball embarks on a color journey of happiness & reminds us that spring is right around the corner. Sauin adds a touch of nylon for strength making it an excellent choice for sweaters, socks & winter hats. Bordering between lightweight & aran, the possibilities are endless!
