Golden Winds
Dress your table - or yourself! - with the elegance of reeled silk yarn from India.
A unique yarn, “Reeled Silk Yarn is the purest form of silk. It is filament yarn. This is the first product made from the silk cocoon. If you closely evaluate this yarn by untwisting it you will find at least 100 strands tightly twisted to make this yarn. It knits beautifully showcasing its extra shine, very soft texture and tensile strength.”
