Noro Sonata Shima

Sonata Shima by Noro takes the soft, lightweight feel of Sonata and adds beautiful multicolor striping for extra visual interest. Cotton provides a breathable natural base, while viscose and silk contribute smoothness, graceful drape, and a subtle sheen. Polyamide adds strength and durability while keeping the finished fabric light and comfortable. With “Shima” meaning “stripe” in Japanese, its shifting colors make it especially suited for lightweight sweaters, tops, shawls, wraps, scarves, and accessories where the yarn can create the colorwork for you.
