The yarn is Noro Silk Garden (or maybe silk garden light?). I had originally begun making the Astrid Wrap, also by Norah Gaughan, but as I started assembling the motifs, I wasn't in love. It just wasn't the right yarn for the pattern, I loved how each motif had several colors on it, but when put together I think all the colors were just overwhelming for a larger item, and they obscured the delicacy of the shawl. But for the spiral shawl, I think the colors emphasize the scarf's unique structure. And its smaller, so avoids looking like a box of crayolas threw up.
