Its natural white finish makes it a perfect base for dyeing, painting, shibori, and eco-printing, allowing fibre artists to achieve rich and vibrant colours with ease. Habotai silk’s fine weave and elegant drape make it equally suitable for scarves, blouses, linings, and delicate textile art.
Available by the metre, as well as in 10m and 20m bulk lengths, this high-quality silk is perfect for both individual makers and professional designers.
