Real silk when dyed is also stiff. I snap it back into the pliable
spinnable silk. I'm assuming the soy silk may have the same problem.
Try taking a short length of it and, holding with both hands on each
end, give it a couple of snaps and see if that doesn't soften it some.

can't imagine putting something this scratchy around my neck!
