Orbits Necklace
All of us at the shop are a little obsessed with the spectacle of colors in Noro Silk Garden. With the different fibres in this yarn, the light picks up the slubs and color changes magnificently. We’re of the opinion that this yarn doesn’t need any fancy stitches to show off its beauty. So when […]
