Banana Sliver is a naturally breathable, plant-based fibre derived from the inner bark of the banana tree. The fibres are white in appearance and soft, silk-like in their properties. The natural lustre and strength of the banana fibre make it ideal for spinning a natural plant-based yarn.
Measuring 10g/m this roving sliver is available in 100g bags.
