from the website:

May Thamasat Lao Lane Xang (meaning: Natural dyed silk from 1 million elephants’ country)

Our beautiful Laotian silk yarn is hand spun and dyed using only natural dyes. The yarn is made specifically for us by Laotian hilltribes who are raising silk worms and producing silk fiber, which has been introduced to these areas in an effort to eliminate opium production.

The resulting yarn is then dyed using traditional Laotian plant based dyes. Available in limited quantities only.

Every order includes written information and pictures.
