Tensan

Discover the craftsmanship of Noro Tensan, a luminous fusion of 68% silk and 32% wool, embodying elegance and natural beauty.

Tensan, which means "silkworm" in Japanese, pays homage to the ancestral origins of silk, a fiber prized for its strength, shine, and timeless luxury. Blended with fine wool, this yarn combines warmth, resilience, and a radiant softness that's pleasant to the touch.

Tensan is knitted on 4.5 to 5.5mm needles for a gauge of 16 to 20 stitches per 10cm.

Skeins weigh 150g per 300m, a DK weight perfect for year-round use.

Tensan is dyed in Noro's unique palette, where deep earth tones blend with bursts of vibrant color. The flowing gradients and vibrant contrasts recall Noro's philosophy: to draw inspiration from nature, transforming each skein into a pictorial landscape of fibers.
