This is a MOST divine set of silk cones from Japan. EIGHTEEN cones! of amazing color and texture. This set takes my breath away. The color palette is luscious. There is a bit of irregularity and slub to the thread. This is one of the most beautiful sets I have laid eyes on and weaving with them is akin to heaven, to me. I do love silk!. I know they are not inexpensive, but if you have the resources, it is well worth the cost. And if you don’t have the resources, do some magic and make it happen so you can experience playing with these amazing silk cones!
I can also offer these cones individually.. Please email me with your request.
20/2, 100% Cultivated silk slub yarn, 160g per cone, approximately 1600m per cone
I will reimburse for any overage paid for shipping and can combine shipping for multiple items purchased.
Please contact with any questions.
Happy weaving!
