Undyed Silks
We offer a wide range of unusual undyed silk fibres if you like to dye to your own colour palette.All fibres can be used for papermaking but mawata caps and silk hankies are particularly rewarding to spin; and if you work experimentally then try silk rods, de-gummed waste and silk laps. For quick silk paper without glue, try our carded cocoon strippings.
