This yarn is the twin of the previous 140nm, but it comes wound tightly onto an industrial cone for the modern weaver. The cone allows for high-speed unwinding, ensuring that the ultra-fine “140nm” thread doesn’t snag or break during intensive production. Its pristine white color is achieved through a gentle scouring process that preserves the silk’s natural proteins. It is the backbone of high-end hosiery and fine lingerie, providing a touch that is almost imperceptible against the skin. For designers working with computerized knitting machines, this cone is the ultimate marriage of delicacy and delivery. It represents the efficiency needed to bring silk luxury to a global scale.

4 Count Silk Noil Yarn (White)
A step up in refinement from the 0 count, this 4-count yarn offers a balance between “chunky” and “manageable.” It retains the signature “noil” bumps—small specs of cocoon—that give it an organic, lived-in appearance. The white fibers are spun with a medium twist to ensure the yarn doesn’t shed while being worked on the loom. It is the ideal candidate for eco-friendly summer suiting, providing a breathable yet structured fabric. Designers love this yarn because it takes on a beautiful “patina” the more the finished garment is worn. It is a sophisticated take on the “raw” silk movement.

20/22 Denier ARM Mulberry Raw Silk Yarn (White)
This is a high-precision filament yarn, measured at the delicate 20/22 denier thickness for consistent quality. The “ARM” designation signifies a specific reeling process that ensures the thread is round and uniform, minimizing breakages during high-speed weaving. It possesses a pearlescent white sheen that looks almost ethereal under natural light. This yarn is highly sought after by industrial weavers who produce high-end yardage for international fashion houses. It offers a balance of fineness and tensile strength that is difficult to replicate with lower grades. It is the gold standard for creating smooth, high-luster silk satins.

Dupion Silk Yarn (Natural)
This is the “Natural” state of Dupion, left in its unbleached, un-dyed glory. It possesses a warm, earthy tone that reflects the actual color of the silk cocoon before processing. The yarn is thick and full of character, with prominent slubs that create a beautiful, “random” pattern when woven. It is the quintessential choice for interior design, specifically for curtains and lampshades that need to diffuse light. The “Natural” hue provides a grounding, organic feel to any room. It is a yarn that celebrates the beautiful imperfections of the natural world.

3 Count Silk Noil Yarn (White)
Sitting right in the middle of the noil family, the 3-count yarn is a versatile medium-weight thread. It offers a slightly more rustic look than the 4-count, with more frequent textural variations that catch the eye. The white color is brilliant, acting as a high-contrast backdrop for the shadows created by its own texture. It is particularly effective when used in the weft to create horizontal “slubs” across a smoother warp. This yarn is often chosen for high-end upholstery where a natural, “earthy” luxury is the design goal. It bridges the gap between the primitive and the polished.
