Eri silk is also known as endi or errandi in India. The woolly white silk is often referred to as the fabric of peace when it is processed without killing the silkworm. This process results in a silk called Ahimsa silk. Moths leave the cocoon and then the cocoons are harvested to be spun.
White Eri Cocoons are ideal for:
• Hand spinning
• Fibre blending
• Felting and surface design
• Textile art and mixed media work
• Papermaking and sculptural applications
Character: Eri is known for its soft, wool-like handle and once opened they reveal layers of delicate silk fibre. It has a slightly matte appearance and creates yarns with a beautiful, organic texture.
Each cocoon is unique in size and structure, reflecting its natural origin.
