Ito Shimo Dark Brown

The Japanese word for yarn, Ito is a brand of luxury yarns spun & dyed in Japan.  Steeped in a rich, textile tradition, Ito yarns possess a beautiful, fine hand & knit into sophisticated pieces that are meant to be worn & treasured.  Each yarn is intentionally dyed into a classic palette of colors that stand the test of time.  The yarns are gorgeous knit alone or combined to create unique fabrics.

A true all-season yarn, Shimo is spun with a blend of merino wool & recycled silk.  Incredibly soft & lightweight, this luxury fingering weight yarn is exquisite knit alone, doubled or held alongside another yarn.
