Yarns by Noro > Silk Garden Silk Garden by Noro If there was only 1 yarn available worldwide I would want it to be this one, although its' 100% wool sister, Kureyon by Noro, would be a close second. You could use this yarn for everything and never get bored. From the simplest and most traditional pullover like Ann Norling's Basic Adult Pullover Pattern to the inventive pattern support from the Noro company (see Spring Garden), the results are always different and always pleasing. The garter stitch hat and scarf shown below took just 2 sks and the shawl used 5 sks and was edged with a cashmere blend. The pinwheel pillow shown below takes 3 skeins for a side....use Cascade 220 for the other side to save some money.The swatch at the far right is one front of a sweet cropped cardigan featured in the Noro Mini Knits book and shown in color 249. 45% silk, 45% kid mohair and 10% lamb's wool. Knits at 4-4.5 sts/in on US 8-9. Price: $11.00/sk 110 yds/sk
