Soft and drapey, this ultra-deep black banana silk Yarn. It has a gorgeous "off and on" luster from its fuzzy and smooth areas. It is just such a deep, versatile and delicious color. JUST FULL of highlights, this is a moody, super textured yarn. Its "thick & thin" type yarn provides even more physical and visual texture.
Handspun and over-dyed banana silk yarn is made in India by women working through Fair Trade. They take what would otherwise be silk waste, from making clothing, and hand spin it into beautiful yarn. Some areas are fuzzy, adding incredible physical as well as visual texture. Embellish scrapbooks, book covers, scarves, art yarn, luggage, wreaths or purse straps, even jewelry. Great in weaving, tapestries, rug making, or plying into your OOAK yarns.
Skeins average 20 - 30 yards, depending on thickness.
