Noro Asaginu hand knitting yarn combines traditional Japanese art paper with fine linen for a wonderfully lightweight summer yarn. Meant to be opened up and worked on a larger needle, this yarn creates beautiful sheer fabric for pretty cover ups and tees worn over a tank top. Makes up into gauzy and artistic scarves, shawls, or caplets.
