This cord is incredibly strong and durable. The sheen of the reeled thread is fractured by the tight twist of the ply, resulting in a light play of sparkles.

This is the yarn which is knit into small beaded bags.  It’s perfect for lace in all techniques.  Also for braiding, beading, hand sewn embellishments and as weaving warp it is unbreakable!

This yarn-thread dyes beautifully with Natural Dyes.  Learn to dye with Natural Dyes – it’s easy and you can do it in your kitchen!  Cheryl Kolander’s NATURAL DYE KITS make learning fun and easy.

 

A classic for jewelery and embelishments!

Additional Product Information

About Reeled silk:  Reeled silk is unwound from the cocoons as a continuous filament, about a quarter mile long.  Many of these filaments are twisted together to make this reeled silk yarn.  Reeled silk is the ultimate in sheen and strength.
