The staple length of Eri silk is short compared to the continuous filament of other silks. The cocoons are soft, almost cottony. White Eri is a wild silkworm - it feeds outdoors and is harvested from the forests in which it feeds. Each cocoon has been cut and the pupa removed.

We've washed these cocoons before they're sent to you. If you wish to wash them, do so gently in warm water and pH neutral soap, rinse gently, and lay on a towel to dry. When the cocoons are wet, they are somewhat malleable and shapeable.
