dolllady aka Pam says:Interesting pick of bright colors! Have you used the silk yarns in jewelry? I love the colors but don’t think it would be strong enough to use a single strand in a jewelry project.

Althea A says:Pam, no I’ve never used the silk yarns. I think they’re beautiful but I also worry they wouldn’t hold up.

FromTheBunker says:I bought the Silk yarn, had to get a yarn winder, but I lost half the skein due to knots. Beautiful and soft, but I wouldn’t buy again. I made up some accessories for my doll house with what I was able to salvage.

dolllady aka Pam says:Thank you ITB. I’m sad to hear about the knots in it. The colors are so fresh and enticing.
