Silk Mulberry Spun Silk Nm 16/2 | Swiss Mountain Silk
You want your fabric to feel as lovely as it looks—but not all silk is easy to handle or practical for weaving. This spun Mulberry silk is soft, lustrous, and beautifully even, offering the finesse of silk with the reliability you need for consistent results on the loom.
Silk has a reputation—it’s gorgeous, yes, but sometimes fussy. If you’ve ever struggled with silk yarns that snag, twist, or slip at the worst moments, you know how that can pull you out of the joy of making. What you’re after is a silk that works with you—not against you—while still delivering that signature softness and sheen.
That’s why spun Mulberry silk is such a delight. It’s smoother and more cooperative than many reeled silks, making it easier to tension and thread. It has all the beauty you expect—rich colour, soft drape, a quiet glow—but also the strength and consistency to support longer, more satisfying weaving sessions. It's not about chasing perfection; it's about finding materials that meet you where you are in your creative process.
And when the cloth comes off the loom? It speaks for itself. The finish is refined but touchable, soft but structured. Whether you're weaving yardage, wraps, or something personal and small, this yarn brings grace to your work. You’ll feel confident, proud, and connected to what you’re making—and that’s the best kind of creative momentum.
