"NORO Yarn"
is made to fulfill these dreams.Let us introduce to you yarn
created through our persistent desire to provide high quality
products. |
About the raw material :
ＮＯＲＯ Yarn has always been particular in selecting raw materials
from nature.Carefully selected materials are used to manufacture
and deliver yarn that does not lose the natural properties of
its material. Impurities in the raw wool are carefully removed
by hand without the use of chemicals or machines.
This process prevents damage to the fiber, though it makes it
impossible to remove impurities as completely as chemicals and
machines do.
About the blend :
To manufacture yarn with the best possible texture that combines
softness, lightness,strength, touch, color, luster and ease
of knitting. We blend several types of raw material,utilizing
our deep knowledge of the characteristics of each material.Materials
are blended by our original method to avoid damaging the characteristic
of each batch, and thus the actual blend ratio may differ from
that stated on the label.
About the dye :
Color is the most important factor for NORO Yarn.Colors must
be beautiful with a strong luster and richness of quality.At
the same time, they must also be robust to prevent them from
fading asily,discoloring or staining.We have conducted research
over many years, continuously going through a process of trial
and error. By using an abundance of the highest quality dye,
we have attained beauty and durability in the colors of our
yarn.
Making of the
NORO Yarn :
The basic principle for NORO Yarn is "Spin yarn by hand"
Use machinery only for what cannot be done by hand. This hand-spun
yarn is made from finely dyed wool,lined faithfully according
to color and weight, carefully maintaining the slow spinning
speed by our crafts persons. Since the human hand is used in
the spinning process, the natural luster and texture are obtained
without considerably impairing the wool fiber. Lining up the
yarn by hand results in irregular arrangement of wool, thereby
giving the yarn more bulk. The features of the NORO Yarn are
lightness. softness and loftiness. Please view the thickness
of our yarn as an average value. Because it is a handmade yarn
with raw materials being weighed and lined by human hands, thera
are areas that are thick and areas that are thin. There are
areas where the strand is tight and where the strand is loose,
so please knit gently and discover the joy of knitting NORO
yarns.
About knots :
Unlike other yarn. handmade NORO Yarn cannot be continuously
spun without knots. Spun yarn is finished by rolling up at aboute
80-90 grams.
Then the yarn is knotted together in a ball or hank. Please
understand that in some cases, there may be a knot or two in
your ball or hank of handspun NORO Yarn.
This is an introduction to some of the distinctive features
of NORO Yarn. We will continue to concentrate our efforts in
the manufacture of produts that are gentle to nature and to
people. We will continue to strive to make improvements in quality,
to develop new products, and to pursue developments in the use
of yarn that may be helpful to our customers. We are looking
forward to your continuing patronage.
