Silk Noil - ITO Kinu 100% Silk Weaving & Knitting Yarn
Discover the sublime texture of ITO Kinu Silk Noil Yarn—crafted for those seeking elegance and versatility. Perfect for your creative projects with its pleasant feel and unique melange of colours.
Silk noil, also known as bourette silk, is produced from the short fibres left after spinning filament silk, giving it a nubby, textured surface. Unlike smooth, shiny silk, silk noil has a matte finish, a slightly rustic appearance, and a soft, cotton-like feel, making it ideal for casual and everyday wear.
Yes, ITO Kinu is a versatile yarn that works well for both knitting and weaving. In knitting, it creates drapey, breathable garments, while in weaving, it produces textured fabrics with excellent structure and depth.
The melange effect is achieved by blending different colored fibers before spinning, creating a rich depth of colour. This subtle variation adds visual texture and makes garments appear more organic and dimensional, enhancing their handwoven or handmade aesthetic.
