20/2 Bombyx Spun Silk

100% Silk Spun in Switzerland – 20/2 – 5000 yds/lb – available in 100 gr. skeins with 1100 yds/skein.

This silk produced a lusciously soft fabric. We recommend that when winding your warp you wind with 2 ends in your hand. This will reduce the number of interlacements going through your lease sticks and make winding on much easier.

If you can’t buy two skeins, then wind your single skein into two balls. It is also advisable to wind this silk onto spools or if using a ball winder to put a sleeve on the ball winder. Access the yarn from the outside of the ball rather than the inside.
