Perfect for summer shawls or lightweight knits, it feels like a second skin against the body. It is a humble yet essential component in a weaver’s toolkit, providing comfort in every stitch.

14-16 Denier Twisted Mulberry Silk Yarn (Yellow)
This is an incredibly fine filament, so thin it is almost transparent, yet reinforced with a precision twist. The “14-16 Denier” range is one of the highest grades of fineness, reserved for the most delicate of textiles like silk chiffon. Its natural yellow color is vibrant and warm, often kept as-is to showcase the purity of the Mulberry source. The twist adds just enough elasticity to make the yarn manageable for expert weavers. It is the preferred choice for weaving high-end scarves that can pass through a wedding ring. This yarn represents the “haute couture” level of silk production.

2 Ply Chinese Twisted Dupion Silk Yarn (Cream White)
Imported for its specific “slubby” characteristics, this Chinese Dupion yarn is a favorite for evening wear. The “2 Ply” twist combines two threads that have natural irregularities, creating a surface that is pleasantly uneven. Its “Cream White” shade offers a vintage, romantic aesthetic that is softer on the eyes than pure white. The twist is tight enough to give the yarn a “crunchy” handle, which translates into the famous “rustle” of silk taffeta. It is the go-to choice for bridal gowns and structured cocktail dresses that need to hold their shape. This yarn brings a touch of Far East textile heritage to the modern atelier.

Fine Twisted Pure Dupion Silk Yarn (White)
This yarn takes the traditional “slubby” Dupion and refines it, offering a “Fine” version for more delicate work. It has the characteristic texture of Dupion—where two cocoons have nested together—but in a much thinner profile. The white color is bright and clean, making it suitable for modern, minimalist designs. The “Twisted” nature of the thread ensures it is durable enough for both warp and weft applications. It is often used to create “Shantung” silk, a fabric known for its ribbed texture and elegant drape. This yarn is perfect for those who want the Dupion look without the heavy weight.

Bleached Mulberry Silk Yarn Warp / Tana (White)
This is a high-performance “Tana” yarn that has undergone a professional bleaching process to achieve a blinding, “optic” white. It is stripped of all natural pigments to ensure it provides a perfectly neutral base for the most delicate pastel dyes. The strength of the Mulberry filament is preserved, allowing it to withstand the rhythmic tension of the loom’s harness. When woven, it produces a fabric with a mirror-like sheen that is synonymous with royal wedding attire. It is the essential starting point for any weaver aiming for a “pure” look. This yarn doesn’t just hold a fabric together; it makes it glow from within.
