The “140nm” count signifies an incredibly fine metric number, identifying this as one of the thinnest spun silks available. Every kilogram contains kilometers of thread, making it a cost-effective yet premium choice for delicate projects. The yarn is combed extensively to remove any short fibers, resulting in a thread that is remarkably smooth for a spun product. Its white color is bright and clean, reflecting a high level of processing and care. It is frequently used for high-end lace making or as a luxury sewing thread for silk garments. This yarn is for the perfectionist who values precision and a feather-light touch.

It is the perfect choice for thick, winter-weight scarves or decorative wall tapestries. This yarn is a favorite for those who want to feel the literal substance of the silk in every inch.

Its pristine white color is achieved through a gentle scouring process that preserves the silk’s natural proteins.

Noils Silk Yarn 3 S (White)
The “3 S” designation marks this as a premium version of Noil yarn, where the texture is intentional and artfully irregular.

It is highly prized by artisanal weavers creating “Boho-chic” home furnishings or rugged, high-fashion jackets. This yarn proves that there is immense beauty and value in what others might leave behind.
