ITO Shimo combines the finest, mulesing-free merino wool from Uruguay with recycled silk and creates a great melange effect. It is a carded yarn that is spun on a carriage spinner - an ancient spinning system known for producing the highest quality yarns.
ITO Shimo reveals its true splendor through washing after spinning and gains in beauty with every wash. With a wide color palette of 22 new colors, this yarn offers endless possibilities for creative combinations with other ITO yarns.
We recommend gentle hand washing.
