Tussah (Wild) Silk Warp — 6-Ply, Nm 70/3×2

This warp-grade tussah silk (often called vegetarian/peace silk) is built from six twisted strands for a yarn that’s delicate in hand yet reliably strong under tension. It dresses cleanly on the loom and doubles beautifully as a fine sewing/embellishment thread for fibre projects.

Why weavers love it

• Strong, smooth warp with tidy sheds

• Gorgeous silk lustre & drape in the finished cloth

Suggested uses

• Fine scarves, shawls, veils & heirloom cloth

Working tips

• Keep tension even; wind warps carefully to avoid twist loss

• Use a fine reed/sett and sample to dial in beat & finish

• For sewing/embellishment, shorten stitch length and use a sharp microtex or silk needle
