Noro Madara

Noro Madara is a luxurious, multi-hued yarn that perfectly embodies the Japanese philosophy of embracing nature's non-uniformity. Its name, which means "mottled" in Japanese, refers to its unique semi-solid colors accented by nubby, vibrant flecks that create a sophisticated tweed effect.
