Discover the artistry of Noro Tensan, a luminous fusion of 68% silk and 32% wool that embodies elegance and natural beauty. Tensan, the Japanese word for “silkworm,” honors the anc ient origins of silk — a fiber treasured for its strength, sheen, and timeless luxury. Blended with fine wool, this yarn brings together warmth, resilience, and a glowing softness that feels indulgent against the skin. Each generous 150-gram skein (328 yards) is dyed in Noro’s unmistakable palette, where deep earth tones merge with radiant bursts of color. With a gauge of 16–20 stitches per 4” (10 cm) on US 7–9 (4.5–5.5 mm) needles, Tensan knits into fabrics that are both light in hand yet enveloping in warmth. Show more
