Noro, Tensan: 06 Ginowan
Noro is known for artistic color combos, and one-of-a-kind balls of yarn where each one is different, even within the same colorway. If you want to create an heirloom quality project that stands the test of time, you can't go wrong with Noro of Japan, as they have been creating fiber art for decades.
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 worsted/aran weight 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 painterly landscape of fiber.
