Silk Covered Wire

*There are 30 of these packages with now 4 colors left (kenya red, light begonia, moss are gone).
This silk covered wire can be used to make delicate stump work items as the edging. Instead of needing to cover the wire by twisting silk around it or using a buttonhole edge to cover the bare ware, this reduces the work to make stump work flowers and leaves.
You can also couch it down as a tiny 'gimp'.
It comes in a package of four colors, two meters each - plain gold, crocus, alice blue, and leaf green

Soie Gobelin is used for needlelace to emulate the medium filament silk used in the 17th century.

This weight is about three times the thickness of a strand of Soie Paris and half that of Soie Perlee.
Tubes of Soie Gobelin are now available for special order. Not all colors are in stock at this time and they will be listed as sold out until new dyeing is done. Special order silk orders must be in by a certain date to make shipping windows.
