Noro Ito
Ito means both "yarn" and "young" in Japanese. Ito is yarn reborn. Ito is a slubby, worsted weight, 100% wool that comes in BIG 432 yard balls. One of NORO's most colorful creations, with tons of colors in each ball (we dare you to count). Ito provides an ever-changing color spectrum as you knit. One ball is enough for a scarf, but it is also a fabulous choice for head-turning sweaters. This natural wool comes from ethically treated sheep, and the fibers are never treated with acids or harmful chemicals, they are gently spun to preserve the natural character of the wool.
