I have been asked if I have colored silk. I answer is yes lots of colored silk. 25 colors of 20/2 spun mulberry silk and a few cones of 60/2 spun mulberry silk. I was going to rework my silk web page before posting this. But I have been having a problem uploading information to the web site. I am going to post pictures of the 5 new colors here and you can view the other 20 on the web site: http://www.handweaver.us/silk_from_india4.htm To order email me with your name, address, phone number and the color number you want.

These colors are fast dyed. Since I can not control the conditions of use, washing, cleaning or pressing the purchaser should assure them self by testing that the dye fastness of the yarn is suitable for their intended use.
