Silk noil (also called raw silk) is made from the short fibers left over after combing silk for finer production. It has a soft, matte texture with small nubs on the surface, unlike the smooth sheen of reeled silk. Silk noil is more affordable than other silk types, incredibly soft, and produces fabric with beautiful drape and a natural, organic texture.

Is Sero a good yarn for a first silk weaving project?

Yes! Sero is one of the most beginner-friendly silk yarns. Despite being silk, it's forgiving to weave with — the slight texture gives it grip so it doesn't slip around like smooth silk, and it's strong enough to use as warp. The nubby texture also hides small imperfections. It's a wonderful way to try luxury fiber weaving without the intimidation factor.

What's the best yarn for weaving a lightweight scarf?

Sero Silk Noil is our top recommendation for lightweight, elegant scarves. At 10–12 EPI on either a rigid heddle or multi-shaft loom, it produces incredibly drapey fabric that feels luxurious around the neck. The silk is cool in warm weather and insulating in cold. For a warmer scarf, try Ode Alpaca instead.
