Noro Magazine Issue #10: 30 Knits in Luscious Shades (Spring-Summer 2017)

Most of the magazines prior to 2020 have a lot of discontinued yarns. Not to worry. Mrs. Knits has your back. 

Here is a list of the yarns and ideas for substitutes when possible:

Silk Garden and Kureyon photos are not for sale here. It's in other listings sold separately. 

  • Ginga, Kagayaki, Kureyon, Kureyon Air, Mirai, Silk Garden, Silk Garden Lite, Silk Garden Solo, Silk Garden Sock, Silk Garden Sock Solo, Taiyo yarns.
  • I will break down the fiber content of each yarn
  • I will suggest a substitute, but I cannot guarantee results. 
  • I will update that information shortly. 

In Stock:
- Kureyon
- Silk Garden, 
- Silk Garden Solo and Silk Garden Sock (website only)


Discontinued but Substitutable:

Kureyon Air - Double 2 strands of Kureyon to approximate gauge.
Silk Garden Sock Solo - We have multi-color but not solo (one color), same gauge but different, more tweedy earthy colors.

Tricky (Message Us for Help):
Ginga
Kagiyaki
Marai

New Option:

Noro Sonata double-stranded might work for replacing Taiyo.
Sonata is on the way and will be on our website.









About Noro Magazine:

Noro Magazine has been published by Vogue Knitting in print since about 2013. Mrs. Knits has been knitting with Noro since the 1990s. A major appeal is that Noro has a stable collection of consistent and innovative yarns. In other words, they do not "discontinue" yarns abruptly, leaving the knitter one skein shy of a project or without pattern support for vintage yarns.

Why charge more than the cover price?
Unlike yarn, magazines are much heavier and more expensive to ship. The increased price still needs to be fully covered by our shipping cost.  However, with 2 magazines, you can expect a shipping upgrade to Priority Mail, and there are discounts for 3 or more magazines, present and past.
