Fold yourself in Tsuru, a sumptuous triangular shawl inspired by the ancient art of origami. Crisp geometric lines evoke the papercraft’s creases. Named for origami’s most popular figure, the crane, TSURU is knit with a trio of sensual ITO yarns – silk-and-wire ITO Tetsu, paper-and-wool ITO Urugami, and feathery mohair ITO Sensai – to create exquisite texture and drape.
