Noro, Rittou: 10 Hinode
Noro is known for artistic color combos, and one-of-a-kind balls of yarn where each one is different, even within the same colorway. If you want to create an heirloom quality project that stands the test of time, you can't go wrong with Noro of Japan, as they have been creating fiber art for decades.
With Noro Rittou, you get a generous 150 gram ball of worsted weight yarn that the studio lovingly calls "dragon eggs." Rittou is named after the Japanese term for "the first day of winter," and it marks the end of autumn where all the colors from the leaves begin to turn brown, as they fall from the tree branch. Each colorway has a natural brown wool blended in to give all colorways and tutumn tone, reminiscent of the dwindling golden sunset of late autumn.
