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.

This is a great silk for first time silk weavers

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
