This yarn carries the soul of the person who made it, with every meter bearing the slight, beautiful variations of a hand-spin. In its white form, it has a soft, glowing quality that machine-made yarns simply cannot replicate. The hand-spinning process preserves more of the silk’s natural “bounce” and elasticity, making it incredibly comfortable to wear. It is a favorite for “slow fashion” advocates who value the time and human energy that goes into every thread. When woven, it creates a fabric with a unique, organic “slub” that tells a story of tradition and patience. This yarn is a celebration of the human touch in a world of automation.

Raw Silk Yarn (White & Yellow)
This unique offering features a blend of white and yellow silk filaments, celebrating the diversity of the silk harvest. The “White” provides a clean brightness, while the “Yellow” adds a warm, sun-kissed undertone to the finished weave. It is a “raw” yarn, meaning the natural gum (sericin) is still present, giving it a stiff, paper-like quality. When the finished fabric is washed, the gum dissolves, leaving behind an incredibly soft and voluminous material. This dual-tone yarn is often used to create “chameleon” fabrics that appear to change color in different lighting. It is a tribute to the raw, unadulterated power of the silkworm’s labor.

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.

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. Despite being made from “silk waste,” this yarn is treated as a luxury specialty item for its incredible tactile quality. It has a heavy, pebbled surface that creates a fabric with significant “grip” and a visual depth that smooth silks lack. In its pure white state, it looks like raw cotton but possesses the unmistakable drape and temperature regulation of high-grade silk. 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.
