Approximately 1 oz. of Silk Hankies for spinning or knitting hand dyed with professional acid dyes. Silk hankies or matawa as it is sometimes called can be used for a variety of fiber projects. This silk is beautifully processed and will make a lovely soft, warm and shinny addition to any fiber arts project.
