NORO Akeboshi 150 g – wool and silk knitting yarn

NORO Akeboshi 150 g – colour play with a touch of silk

NORO Akeboshi is a knitting yarn that makes an impression before you even cast on. Deep base colours meet lively flecks and unexpected colour changes. The name “Akeboshi” means “morning star” and echoes the colours just before sunrise: dark shades shot through with the first bright accents.

The blend of 85% wool and 15% silk combines warmth with a subtle sheen and a supple drape. A slightly uneven yarn structure gives the surface added depth and underlines the characteristic NORO look. Even simple knit stitches or garter stitch show off the many colour details.

Knitting jumpers, cardigans and accessories

NORO Akeboshi suits expressive jumpers, cosy cardigans and warm jackets as well as hats and scarves. Whether worked in stocking stitch, with cables or in textured patterns, the interplay of colour and texture gives every project its own character.

The generous 150 g balls, each approx. 270 m long, leave plenty of room for knitting ideas, from a small accessory to a favourite piece for the colder months.

Our tip: Choose a simple pattern if you want to show off the colours of Akeboshi. A tension swatch helps you judge the effect of the yarn structure and pattern before starting a larger project.
