Taiyo

Noro, you either hate it or love it. I happen to be part of the group that is addicted. Even when other brands have softer and more consistent (I've never had a problem with any of my skeins, but I have heard of others who have) yarn bases with long color transitions, there is something that draws me in with the rustic look and feel of the Noro bases. I had only worked with the Silk Garden before, so when the opportunity rose to work with the Taiyo, I knew I wanted to try it. I'm generally not a huge fan of cotton/cotton blends, but the additional silk, wool, and nylon content makes the Taiyo great to work with. I can't wait to finish up this cowl!
