Purple Eggplant Raw Silk Noil 45" Wide By the Yard #20853

Raw Silk Noil is drapey, flowy, supple, softly textured, not shiny at all. Softness, tiny flecks and slubs are what make Noil so unique and beautiful. It's almost like a hand loomed silk/cotton blend but is actually machine loomed 100% silk. We're thrilled that this lovely old-style heirloom silk is still being made. It's so nice to wear, easier to care for than most silk, and easy to sew; it stays put like cotton, without trying to slip away. Looser styles work very well with its drape and dry hand. 

Dry cleaning will preserve the color and texture longer, but many hand wash their noil in cool water with shampoo or a mild detergent and air dry. Test before sewing, find the results you like, then clean the garment the same way. 

100% Silk, 45" wide. Sold per full yard, and we'll cut your in a continuous piece from the new roll.
