Orchid Pink Naturally Dyed Silk Embroidery Floss
Take your stitching to the next level with this beautiful, plant dyed silk floss! It is made from ahimsa, or peace silk, which means that no silkworms were harmed in the collection of silk from their cocoons. It is made of two tightly twisted plies that cannot be separated, similar to pearl (perle) cotton thread.
This silk embroidery floss was hand dyed by myself using a blend of natural cochineal and madder root dyes. Both are natural dyes that have been used for centuries and are incredibly colorfast. The rosy pink coloring has some slight variations, giving depth and interest to your stitching. It is the middle skein shown in the group photos. The last photo shows a different color in my hand for scale.
This thread is 20/2 weight and can be used for embroidery, needlepoint, sashiko and boro stitching, visible mending, tatting, beading and more! When compared to DMC cotton pearl floss, this silk floss is a little thicker than size 8 but is thinner than size 5.
