Noro Okunoshima blends fluffy angora with silk and mohair for a delightfully soft yarn with a delicate halo. The Okunoshima color palette is equally soft - like an impressionist painting. Okunoshima still manages to have great stitch definition, showcasing cables and lace beautifully.
I love how Okunoshima looks after a little warm water bath. The fibers open up and bloom, becoming softer and more lofty, while maintaining the fabric's structural integrity. See our Okunoshima kits here.
