The 60/2 NM Gased Twisted Eri Silk Yarn is a beautifully processed natural fibre crafted from 100% Red Eri silk, known for its ethical sourcing and warm earthy tone. This yarn is gased to remove flyaway fibres for a refined texture and twisted for increased strength and fabric definition, making it a reliable choice for both traditional and contemporary textile design.
With a finer yarn count of 60/2 NM, it’s perfectly suited for lightweight, breathable fabrics where softness, structure, and sustainability all matter. Red Eri silk is spun from open-ended cocoons, making it inherently cruelty-free and biodegradable—a rare combination that aligns with modern conscious design values.
Why Choose 60/2 Red Eri Yarn?
- Cruelty-Free Silk: Harvested without harming the silkworm, Red Eri is often called “Ahimsa silk” or “peace silk”.
- Gased & Twisted: Flame-treated for a cleaner finish and tightly twisted to increase durability and reduce shedding during weaving.
- Distinct Texture: Red Eri offers a slightly coarse yet soft handfeel, perfect for high-end textures in fashion and interiors.
- Naturally Beige: The warm undyed hue adds organic character, or it can be over-dyed using natural or eco-friendly dyes.
