From Artfibers website: “Shizen is unique - a loopy braid of silk wound up in a halo of airy mohair. This yarn reflects the patience, surpassing craftsmanship, and revernce for fine materials that are so at the heart of Japanese tradition. Yet in every way it feels modern and high fashion, like the Tokyo catwalks. Shizen means nature. We chose that name because this yarn somehow expresses the musicality of our surroundings.”
