Ito Serishin

Description

Wait until you see this! Serishin is a luxurious silk yarn with a tremendous sheen. This gorgeous yarn is perfect for drapy shawls or unique garments.  Serishin's unique structure is built of single silk filaments that form a bast-like flat ribbon. When knit, Serishin forms a very soft and fluid fabric. It is hand-dyed, creating beautiful irregularities and color differences in the skein.
