Durable, soft, and light-weight "plain weave" with a nice luster. Woven from smooth spun (not reeled) silk. Spun yarns are mostly from the thickest fibre on the outer part of the cocoon, and from breeder cocoons, so this fabric contains some Peace silk, and is especially durable.
I have always preferred the hand of spun silk (staple silk yarns) to that of reeled silk. That is even before I understood that spun silk yarn makes use of the breeder cocoons, and thus is partly "Peace" silk, mixed with the strongest outer layers of the silk cocoons. that is why it feels so good and lasts so long." - Cheryl Kolander, who IS Aurora Silk

* Colour/dye info: all dyes used and all colours sold by Aurora Silk are 100% natural dyed, using true natural dyes. (Please do not think it amiss of me to mention that virtually all other sources sell synthetic dyed colours labeled as natural dyes. Since there is no trademark on the term natural dye, this is technically legal (!) Please read "Gramma Says" for more info.)
