Furisode

Eisaku Noro has worked his color magic once again with Furisode, a heavy worsted weight yarn combining silk, cotton and just a touch of wool.  The fiber content makes for a very textural yarn that is light feeling and next-to-the-skin soft.  Furisode comes in a stunning range of self-striping colors that are appropriate for garments and accessories for men, women and children all year round.  Each 100 gram skein is 45% silk, 40% cotton, 15% wool, 165 yards and knits at 3-4 stitches per inch.  Made in Japan
