This high-quality tussah silk yarn has a nice sheen and mostly smooth strand (some nubs and slubs to be expected, but not a lot of them), a twist that is neither very tight nor very loose, and offers strength and grip/texture to the finished product. Tussah silk is made from silk cocoons spun by silk moths that eat varied or wild diets rather than mulberry leaves.

Priced per cone. Next-to-skin soft. Baby soft. Suitable for baby wraps.

Suitable for warp and/or weft.
