Product Details:
Tussah Silk Sliver

This natural pale honey colored fiber is widely regarded as being a little easier to spin than bombyx silk. Cultivated from a different strain of moth than bombyx silk, Tussah is incredibly fine, but just a little coarser than bombyx, and feels a bit less slippery. Tussah also dyes beautifully with acid dyes or fiber reactive dyes.

Recommended for new silk spinners.

Available in 4 and 8 ounce packages.
