This Luxurious Blend of 23 Micron Superwash Merino and Extra Bleached Tussah Silk is a staple fiber every fiber enthusiast should have in their fiber stash. A dreamy 75/25 blend that puts the clouds to shame with a remarkable shine and silky glint. This fiber will spin effortlessly, creating a luscious yarn with gorgeous drape and shine, perfect for a knitted shawl or heavenly sweater.
Take this roving to a whole new level with some of our amazing dye selections. The silk will dye just a tad lighter than the merino giving your roving depth. Superwash wool has been treated to resist felting, this is a valuable trait for washable garments made of this wonder fiber.
