Noro Madara

Rich, colorful, and irresistibly soft — Noro Madara is a luxurious blend of wool, silk, and alpaca spun into a beautifully textured, subtly tweedy yarn. True to Noro’s signature style, each skein features gentle color shifts and flecks of contrasting hues, creating stunning depth and dimension in every project.

Madara is a worsted-weight yarn with a smooth, round structure that gives excellent stitch definition and a touch of sheen from the silk. Perfect for sweaters, accessories, and cozy cold-weather knits, it combines traditional texture with Noro’s unmistakable artistry.

Why we love it: A modern Noro classic — soft, vibrant, and full of color depth that makes every stitch a joy.
