Comments about Noro Shirakaba:
I knitted a tunic to pop over cotton t-shirts for the cooler weather. Washed very nicely, silk content is lovely, smooths out the small percentage of (itchy) wool. I really like the coloring so I bought a copper red lot for a long cardigan. Best knit seamless as the yarn breaks if you try to seam with it, no matter how gentle you are. Hard to find silk/cotton content at such a great price- on sale of course!
