Tsubame is a delicious yarn from Noro, wound into a large ball and with a plethora of colors with long color runs. 

The yarn is 50% silk/ 25% wool/ 25% nylon -- the high quantity of silk, I suspect, is one of the reasons it feels so lovely running through my fingers.  Each ball has 656 yards (600m) per 200g. 

*****

Most Noro yarns are minimally processed so that they might feel a bit rough coming off the skein.  I have found that after washing the finished piece, it softens up deliciously.  And this yarn with its high silk content is especially marvelous. 

Classified as a worsted weight yarn, the plies are tight and the colors are beautiful.  Each cake is dyed with long color runs.

The colorway we offer here is really strikingly lovely.  Called Oyama (colorway #11), it is a cool melody with mostly varying purples and blues, and some teal as well.

Just to give you some ideas of the types of projects you could knit with this:

I took one ball in a different colorwayand began to knit it in a scarf-sized version of Tuck Stars by Ute Nawratil .  You can see my progress in the third photo on this page. The fourth photo shows a very similar yarn, knit in Jelly Roll by kieranfoley.
