Details
Viola Vibes is a spinning blend of 85% merino wool and 15% tussah silk in soft purples, fresh greens and gentle yellows, with touches of lilac and pale blue, all with a silky sheen. It's made for spinning and felting.
Tussah is silk from silkworms that feed on the leaves of oak and other trees. Fine wool and silk generally take more twist than a coarser wool, so check your twist early.
