Silk & Ivory yarn is spun in Switzerland from 50/50 high-quality silk and merino wool. It's so famous in needlepointing circles that it almost needs no introduction.

The silk provides a beautiful, subtle luster, while the wool adds a wonderful body and durability to your stitches.

Silk & Ivory comes in 244* shades, offering excellent options for subtle shading or bold contrasts in your needlepoint.

• Composition: 50% Silk, 50% Merino Wool
• Skein Length: 28.8 yards
• Recommended Canvas: Versatile for use on 13, 14, 16, and 18-mesh canvas
• Origin: Made in Switzerland

For 13-count canvas (like Spider Spun kits), you only need to use one strand. So, this is a fantastic yarn if you want to stitch with one strand.

*We're currently only stocking colors that appear in our kits, but please let us know if you're looking for something specific!

Note: Because we offer multiple fibers for our kits, we have general names for each of the colors to make things consistent for stitchers. These names are sometimes different than the Silk & Ivory colors. If you have any questions about these, please email us!
