Nothing beats silk for beautiful cloth with drape, sheen, and luminous color. Kiku is a reeled silk from the moth Bombyx mori., so it has high luster, strength, and resilience. Treenway takes this beautiful yarn and hand dyes it in a range of rich colors. The Kiku 20/2 silk is supple and easy to weave, making it a great choice for scarves, shawls, and clothing.

The Kiku silk is packaged in reeled hanks. Because of the fineness of the yarn and the slippery nature of silk, we do not wind the hanks into balls before shipping. If you need advice on winding this yarn into balls, please ask for winding tips in the box labeled "shipping instructions" on your checkout screen.
