Hand-Dyed Silk & Spinning Kits


The silk fibres on this page are high-quality, smooth-drafting tussah silk top, dyed here in my kitchen and packaged with admiration and love. Indoors, this silk has a soft sheen; in sunlight, a pronounced sparkle.

The fibre is packed in a duo of colours. To order, just choose each of the two colours you'd like, then click "Add to Cart". Each silk packet weighs about 50 grams (25 grams of each colour) -- which will spin into plenty of yarn for a knitted scarf.

The palette of all 20 silk colours is shown below the Silk Duo "order" button. Of course, silk on the computer screen is not the same as silk in the hand -- but the images will give you something to feed your mind's eye. :-) ...If you'd prefer pleasantly wordy descriptions of the colours, click here.

Are you new to silk spinning, or yearning simply for more? Scroll to the lower part of this page and read about the silk spinning kits: silk, plus spindle, plus instructions. Delicious!

Silk Spinning Kits

Because sometimes the fibre just isn't enough, and because it's nice to have a spindle that really is a perfect weight for spinning silk, and because I genuinely do love getting silk into people's hands -- here's a friendly kit to help you get started with silk.

The silk spinning kit (front and back views shown) contains everything you need to get spinning: 50 grams of tussah silk top, a smooth-finished Squared Circle spindle (Small), and an 8-page pictorial workshop -- all packed in a handy zip-top pouch.

Silk colours. We all see colour differently. The kit shown here contains a duo of Blackberry and Copper -- but if those aren't your colours, never fear! You get to choose your own. Colours are displayed in the colour palette above.
