Noro - Koma

Let yourself be swept away by the vibrant beauty of Koma, a showstopping yarn from Noro that captures the essence of Japanese artistry. Spun from a luxe blend of 45% wool, 35% mohair, and 20% silk, Koma delivers the perfect balance of warmth, softness, and luster — all wrapped up in Noro’s signature self-striping palette. Each ball is layered with waves of colour that play out like the swirls of a spinning top — a joyful dance of hue and texture. In fact, Koma takes its name from the Japanese word for a spinning top, a fitting tribute to the yarn’s sense of motion and playful energy. With a generous 443 yards per 150-gram skein, Koma is perfect for statement shawls, cozy garments, and any project that calls for colour and character. The lofty mohair halo adds softness and depth, while silk threads in a subtle sheen that elevates every stitch. Whether you’re crafting bold contrasts or painterly gradients, Koma is a celebration of creativity — inspired by nature, tradition, and the timeless joy of making.
