: color variations are a normal design feature of this and most Noro yarns. What you receive may look different on the outside, or be a different dye lot than one of the photos, but all colors in the swatch photo will be in the skein. We will not accept returns based on those color variations, unless you receive a colorway # other than the above.
Mrs. Knits loves her one-skein wonders, because this jumbo ball of Ito means no ends to weave together for multiple skeins. And self-striping means this jumbo ball handles all the delightful color variations for you!
What is it?
Featured in several Noro Magazines (published by Vogue Knitting),
Ito is a slubby, worsted weight, 100% wool that comes in BIG 200 gram / 437 yard balls. One of NORO's most colorful creations, Ito provides an ever-changing color spectrum as you knit.
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."
