"This is some of the softest and finest thread I have ever laid hands on. So even and neatly bundled. I can’t wait to dye some of these, and will add a photo when I do! Xueping, I can’t thank you enough for the careful packaging and shipping too! Excellent customer service all around.
Some tips for those who have trouble handling these silks to undo the skeins:
1. Moisturize those hands! If your cuticles are sandpaper you will snag and tangle your silks.
2. Open the larger skein and drape it over a smooth horizontal stick, let them relax and gently spread them apart where the ties are on each mini skein. Cut each section of tie between each mini skein and be careful not to pull on the other skeins as you remove each one.
3. Be as patient as the tiny silkworms who made this fiber, and the skilled humans that reeled each thread."
