Started Feb 26, 2021 · A conversation in Community Lounge

Hello! Today, I'll tell you about one more type of yarn - silk. It's one of the most expensive, but looks really great! Silk There are different types of silk yarn – Reeled silk yarn and spun silk yarn. It’s quite easy to work with, but very slippery. Make sure you know what you’re doing before commencing a project with silk yarn. Silk is the most expensive and lustrous fiber on our list. It’s quite strong, shiny, and has a lovely feel on the skin. There are some magical silk blends on the market, such as merino, silk, and cashmere. Ideal For: Strong, shiny, and relatively cool, this makes it the perfect yarn for summer items. Fun Fact: Strong as steel in the tensile sense, silk is the strongest natural fiber known to humans!
