{"product_id":"2-ply-silk-noil-yarn-raw-silk-mini-cone","title":"2-Ply Silk Noil Yarn (Raw Silk) | Mini-cone","description":"\u003cp\u003eA rustic and textured silk that offers an earthy elegance in woven or knitted cloth. Keep in mind when using silk that it has almost no elasticity and minimal shrinkage. It will not full or \"bloom\" in finishing. In weaving, your warp sett should reflect this and be closer than for wool. Blend with worsted spun and other fine wools, such as Merinos for added strength and elasticity, more easily used in weft than warp as the 'slubbiness' can make it more delicate. In knitting the the hand is lovely, but the inelasticity can be a challenge. To make the most of it, choose textured stitches, and patterns which feature hems, picot or crocheted edges rather than ribs as ribs will sag. Natural silks are ideal for dyeing with natural dyes, Country Classic or Wash-fast Acid Dyes. Color saturation will be more muted than in smooth cultivated silks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Henry's Attic","offers":[{"title":"Natural","offer_id":41427440304260,"sku":"1490000M","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0605\/4625\/2932\/files\/henry-s-attic-yarn-natural-2-ply-silk-noil-yarn-raw-silk-mini-cone-40905624486020.jpg?v=1735331417","url":"https:\/\/www.halcyonyarn.mom\/products\/2-ply-silk-noil-yarn-raw-silk-mini-cone","provider":"Halcyon Yarn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
