Isager Mulberry Silk

Sold in 25gram balls. Lace weight / 2ply.

Isager Mulberry Silk is a fine and thin yarn made from 100% mulberry silk, spun from two strands. The silk is ideal for knitting together with our other yarns, as it enhances any yarn by adding extra softness and a beautiful, subtle sheen.

Any yarn is automatically elevated when knitted together with Mulberry Silk. The silk adds softness and elegance to any project when knitted together with other yarns in the Isager range! Mulberry Silk works especially well when held together with Isager Spinni or Tvinni (100% wool) or Isager Palet (100% cotton), as it adds a beautiful sheen and a cool touch, which complements these more matte yarns. When paired with wool yarns, it provides extra softness without the fuzziness like with Isager Silk Mohair. It is especially well suited for lighter garments, scarves and baby clothes.
