Incredibly soft and very lustrous pure tussah silk with an unusual ‘woolly’ hand, a fine babysoft wool-like halo and a gossamer-light drape - despite its pure silk content, it has the chrarcteristic ‘grab’ of tussah silk so makes for non-slippy knitting.
This highly lustrous yarn is perfect for shawls, stoles and projects that are to be worn next to the skin.
