Sea Silk. Just the name is enough to conjure up visions of mystery and luxury. And this yarn fully delivers on that promise. It’s spun from 70% silk and 30% “Seacell,” a product made from seaweed. The manufacturer of Seacell claims it has both antimicrobial and skin softening properties and I’m willing to believe just about anything in regards to this yarn.

In a fingering weight, this blend produces the most ethereal scarves and shawls you can imagine. This yarn is available in limited quantities at this weight, so grab it while you can!
