Imaginary Shopping Spree: Noro edition.

I know a lot of people don’t like Noro. They say the yarn, famous for its self-striping colors, is too rough, unpredictable or filled with knots. But those are all qualities that I love in a yarn. Especially with knitting, I am generally more interested in the process than the result; so Noro is often the perfect yarn for me. Because it’s just so fun to knit with. Never a dull moment in these skeins.
