This yarn is high twisted and shiny, it’s gorgeous. It has a bright white colouring and looks so nice in the skein. It takes the dye really well, sucks up the colour and the colours appear bright and clear. Speckles work well on this yarn. We recommend soaking high content silk yarns in warm water for a few hours to help it become more absorbent. The fabric knitted with this yarn is light and shiny with a lovely drape. We have used 3.25mm needles, but 3mm would also work. Super soft, this yarn is perfect for accessories and sweaters.
