item #: AOS-23 handspun tassar silk content: 100% silk yardage: 65 yds./oz. regular price: $11.45/oz. (new price from 5/15/2007 - due to the difficulty in making of this yarn in India, the price has unfortunately gone up...) weight: lace unit size: approx. 2-3 oz. skein suggested epi for weaving: N/A suggested needle size for knitting: US no. 0-2 suggested needle size for crochet: N/A Very fine handspun silk (not as fine as AOS-19, but...). Beautiful honey colored wild silk. The skein is not difficult to handle, but quite a bit of yardage is in one skein. Please wind SLOWLY and CAREFULLY. Like AOS-19, once you see the result, you will not mind the time and labor it took to wind it. The fabric is weightless.
