Someone sent me some to blend with her Cormo wool. This was the natural color and we tried blending it at 10, 20 and 30%. The 10% added some luster and silkiness to the wool, and didn't change the color much. The 20% gave it a warm, creamy color and added a lot of sheen. At 30%, I had trouble getting it through the carding machine, and it made a big difference in the color. I liked the feeling of all 3 blends, but the 10 and 20% are probably the best, depending on the skill of the spinner. It is definitely different from regular silk! When blending it, I found it best to pull it into as small pieces as you can, then picking it with a small amount of wool really helped to get an even blend.
Has anyone seen the bleached soy silk?? Belinda Morgan Ewe Gotta Love 'Em Fiber Processing and Matilda Sheep Covers 15800 Stringtown Rd. S.E.
