Using very small knitting needles, knitted socks for a very large Jumeau. I like the lacey look. First the yarn was wound into balls to avoid tangling. After that, there were no problems at all. It was necessary for me to wear magnifying craft glasses, as my vision is no where near 20/20. Update: I completed one large Jumeau sock and really like the look of the silk sock on the doll. I gained speed as I went along and completed it fairly quickly. I plan to make one more Jumeau sock and then look around my doll collection for anyone else who is sockless. Becoming quite fond of this yarn.

This silk yarn feels soft and great against the skin. I knit a lightweight scarf out of it. Because the yarn is very fine, I used two strands throughout. The yarn comes in loose skeins that need to be wound into balls. I did this carefully with the yarn loop draped around the back of a soft leather chair, as the yarn would tangle and knot if several loops came off the skein at once. If the manufacturer sold this yarn already wound, that would save much time and some aggravation untangling knots. Since I was knitting with double yarns, I kept each ball in its own small plastic bag to avoid tangles. Even so, several loops would come off a ball and instantly knot. However, the silk yarn is strong and never ripped, so be patient working out any knots--they gradually come out. The silk scarf washed and blocked beautifully, and the finished scarf has lots of ease and drape because of the stretchy nature of silk yarn and the open stitch pattern. I was very pleased with my finished product!

There was no indication of the thickness of the fiber. There was only a small sheen which by the photo you couldn't tell

I have been looking for 100% silk yarn for many years. This is the first time I've ever seen it and am so happy to find it and will be ordering more in the future. It is really nice, but a little thinner than what I was hoping to find, but I spooled it into two balls and will be crocheting it double thickness. I never have learned how to read the thickness measurements of yarn or wire. I'm creative! I don't do numbers! Great delivery of the product!

This yarn is beautiful. It is so soft & very shiny. I have not worked with it yet, but excited to do so.
