Silk is known for its beautiful drape, lustre, and depth of colour and is a very strong and insulating natural fibre. Silk weaving yarns also have excellent dyeing and colour-blocking properties, making them ideal for creating stunning woven fabrics. Silk is known for its luxurious sheen and its ability to take on vibrant colours, allowing the weaver to create intricate designs and patterns. The fibres are also highly durable, allowing for a long-lasting fabric with vivid colours that will not fade over time.
Silk yarn produces garments that are soft to the touch and have a luxurious drape due to their strength, warmth, and daintiness. The silk fibre is exceptionally smooth, which allows the fabric to lengthen when wearing and gives the garment a beautiful drape. Blending silk with other fibres like alpaca, merino, wool, and cotton can create a more stable fabric and help maintain the item's original shape while still keeping the luxurious drape of silk. For example, a silk cotton blend can be used to make warm-weather tops and neckwear which will have a soft feel and luxurious drape.
We have a blog post explaining the different types and styles of silk yarns. You can read the silk yarn blogpost here.
