Silk
Silk is a natural protein fiber, some forms of which can be woven into textiles. Renowned as the strongest natural textile globally, silk possesses a smooth and sleek texture. Silk yarns yield fabrics with a distinctive drape and touch, rendering garments knitted with silk an extraordinary fluidity. Ideal for lacework and tops, some may find silk yarn slightly slippery to handle. Despite its knitting allure, silk demands delicate care due to its fragility. A preferred choice for delicate projects, silk yarns are employed by clothiers to craft exquisite silk scarves, shirts, ties, pocket squares, nightgowns, lingerie, evening wear, blouses, suits, robes, sports coats, curtains, pillow ruffles, parachutes, bicycle tires, and medical dressings.
