About the Yarn:
Yakuta is made with the same special blend of fibers and color twists as the ever-popular Noro Tsubame yarn, just in a finer gauge. Perfect for lace knitting, our designers also found it an excellent weight for crochet.
Here's why we LOVE this yarn:
1. We like big balls and we cannot lie. At 787 yards, this is the equivalent of almost 8 skeins of standard worsted weight yarn!
2. Long, beautiful color repeats! The color changes keep you interested, even through simple knitting and crocheting.
3. For extra fun, buy 2 different colors and alternate every couple of rows. There are some amazing patterns featuring this yarn!

I'm working on a shawl for my daughter. Not too far in (more like a bandana right now), but I already know that working with this yarn is a delight. And the colors! I've never used a variegated yarn with so many colors. There were at least 8 color shifts before a color was repeated, and it doesn't just repeat the same pattern, so working with this yarn is an adventure, but I know it will turn out amazing.
