Muga silk is one of the many nature's gift to Assam. The specialty of this silk is it's golden bright colour. "Muga" is derived from the Assamese word 'muga' meaning yellowish. It is superior in every respect from the normal white silk available all over the world. This silk is much more durable than the normal one. And interestingly it's brightness improves with every wash while the normal silk has to be very carefully washed. Apart from normal dressings, it is used in other furnishing and decoration stuff too. Muga clothes are so durable that it can be used for decades. Muga Silk is supposed to be one of the costliest fabrics in the whole world.

Sett: Lace 24 epi, Plain weave 26 epi, Twill 28 epi. This is not a yarn you want to "beat" into place. Just move the yarn into place. Please sample

Caring for your silk: Silk is a delicate fabric and should be handled with care. However, it is fairly easy to clean. It has a naturally tendency to release dirt quickly and does not always require dry cleaning to keep its quality. Please visit this web site for washing instructions: http://www.howtocleanstuff.net/how-to-wash-silk/

This is a great silk for first time silk weavers

"I am a brand new weaver and love the service I get from Georgia Yarn Company! I got it into my head to try weaving a silk scarf (I know...I know...) and Michael very gently steered me to a weight that would be more forgiving for a beginner. I'm so thankful for that kind of attention and I will be looking here for my weaving needs in the future." Keri, Kingston, WA

Both the purple and the coral have the same amount of silk (100 grams) as the small cone on the right, Apricot.

wound on the cone.

These colors are sold to me as being fast dyed. I have found that this is not always true. Since I can not control the conditions of use, washing, cleaning or pressing the purchaser should sure assure them self by testing that the dye fastness of the yarn is suitable for their intended use. It is recommend that silk be washed in cold water using a dye catcher cloth
