Silk Noils – Violet
100% Cultivated (mulberry/bombyx) silk.

Yak, Brown 50/Cultivated Silk 50
50% Yak / 50% Cultivated Silk
Absolute luxury best describes this exotic blend from Ashland Bay. The combination of the two fibres somehow gives an almost metallic appearance, better than either alone! This would overdye like a dream, if you dare. The colour is sort of silvery brown but streaky at the same time. We think this wants to be spun lace weight but no doubt it would make superb bulkier yarns as well. Clean combed top, and easy to spin.
