Lightened Silk! Tussah silk, suitable for papermaking, spinning or adding to felt projects.
Tussah Silk is a wild silk. Made from wild tussah silk worms who eat juniper leaves and oak. As the silk is produced in the wild and not in a controlled environment the silk tends to be courser and less lustrous than Mulberry silk. We have natural silk in many forms and also 6 dyed shades in tops. The dyes used are commercial acid dyes which conform with Oeko-Tex 100 quality system.
