While dreaming up this yarn, my mind drifted to Indian princesses of days gone by that wore brilliant colors and heaps of sparkling gems. Maharani Silk is a gorgeous combination of 3 happy silk colors twisted together with a skinny strand of lurex. The end result is a shimmering yarn with beautiful drape, ideal for lightweight summer sweaters and shawls.
