The 60/1 NM Eri Silk Yarn is a single-ply, fine-count yarn made from pure, ethically sourced white Eri silk. With a natural matte finish and soft cotton-like texture, this yarn is ideal for lightweight textiles that prioritize comfort, breathability, and ethical sourcing.
Unlike twisted or processed yarns, this untwisted single-ply format retains a raw, organic character. Its softness makes it suitable for crafting next-to-skin wearables like scarves, stoles, innerwear, or eco-conscious couture.
This 60/1 count is perfect for artisans and designers looking for a minimalistic, naturally luxurious yarn that blends well with other fibres or stands strong on its own.
