Mulberry Silk Noil Fibre Undyed

Mulberry silk noil fibre is the left over fibres of the silk carding process are called silk noil, these can then be used to add texture to hand spun yarns, felting projects, carded through art batts etc. This is a very short fibre.

There are 3 different types available, all are in 50 gram packs

1. Regular is the usual type with plenty of texture and variations.
2. Frist Grade is much whiter but still with some texture through out.
3. Super Grade is the finest with a very silky handle and almost no texture remaining.

This fibre is created after bleaching and removing of all the sericin. 
All the gum from the fibre has been removed and It can be dyed into any colour with the correct dye.

Possible Uses

I use silk noil for detail when wet felting bags and flowers, painting with fibres, needle felting, spinning art yarns, carding and blending those big beautiful art batts, the list is endless.

I also usually put these fibres through my carder prior to use, this will open the fibres up and make them easier to work with. When you are using these fibres, less is more. These work very well when blended into art batts and rolags on the blending board or carder.

Care Instructions
