Each step of creating these products is carried out locally—from nurturing silk worms to knotting the last silk thread on a finished piece. Community members are employed to care for silk worms, collect and process raw cocoons, spin yarn, color with eco friendly dyes or make and apply all-natural plant dyes, and weave fabric. In this way, each step of the process supports local artisan livelihood.

    Picture doesn't do it justice. Not too stiff, not too slippery like traditional silk. Great find.
