What's on our Needles? Noro Kureyon! We are obsessed with the beautiful Noro Heart Blanket pattern kits.  In Noro Issue #5 Designer Bonnie Franz created this popular kit.
Noro Kureyon’s rustic wool yarn celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2018. An excellent choice when knitting or crocheting outerwear garments and for felting (fulling) projects. This beloved yarn has a devoted following. Happy Knitting!
According to the artist, Eisaku Noro:
"If I make wool yarn, I use various lengths and thicknesses of wool fibers to try to reproduce the nature of sheep itself in our yarn: such as unevenness and coarseness. These natural states are intentionally left by using human hands and old machinery so that natural fibers are not over processed. All of this is so knitters can feel nature more closely when knitting with Noro yarns.
"Impurities in the raw materials are carefully removed by hand without the use of chemical treatment which is not good for the fibers or the environment. We also aim to reproduce the colors of nature in our yarns: leaves for example, all look green, but in reality they come in countless variations of green. By mixing colors we can give our yarns more natural feeling colors reminiscent of oceans, mountains, flowers, trees and so on."
