Degummed peace silk fibre from cocoons organically raised in Portland. Cocoons were boiled in pure soap to remove sericin gum. Pull open the degummed cocoons into a soft mass and spin directly, or pull out into a long roving. No cutting or carding is needed. This is the easiest spinning because the long semi-continuous fibres can't slip away. The resulting yarn is soft, lofty, very light weight, and cloud-like. A small weight of silk goes a long way. Approximately 250 cocoons produce 1 oz finished silk.
