Available in:
10g - $25 (approximately 35 cocoons).
20g - $45 (approximately 70 cocoons).
40g - $65 (approximately 130 cocoons).
Each cocoon is entirely unique, varying greatly in colour, size, and form. Some feel dense and firm, while others are soft and yielding.
Versatile and intriguing to work with, mulberry silk cocoons invite experimentation and their potential is limited only by your imagination!
Working with the cocoons
Mulberry silk cocoons can be used in their raw state and gently teased out for textural and sculptural applications.
However, if you intend to spin the fibres, the cocoons must first be degummed. Degumming removes the natural sericin (silk gum), allowing the fibres to separate more easily and produce a smoother, more workable yarn.
