The name Haruito [はるいと] is word composed of two parts : Haru is the Japanese term for spring & Ito for thread or "yarn for spring". Spring brings to mind the time of year when everything starts to bloom and colorful flowers delight our eyes. Due to the smooth, silky structure, the yarn is wonderful to wear directly on the skin (containing no wool, only silk, cotton, and nylon). It is ideal for sweaters, summer jackets, summer scarves and stoles that you can wrap yourself in when it gets cooler in the evenings. It is also a perfect choice for a soft baby blanket.
