Shiny, fine, and....well....silky, this Tussah Silk is sure to please. Tussah silk is made by silk worms that eat leaves other than exclusively mulberry, and is a lovely textured slightly thicker filament. Hand dyed for spinning straight or blending. Treat yourself to some luxury!!

Follow the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, then feast your eyes upon a horse of two of a different color! Ok, so I couldn't come up with a name.....ya got a rainbow here from yellow to green to blue to purple. The transition areas are very short, so this is also suitable for discombobulating to get the separate colors.
