When they say "China Silk" this is what they mean. Light weight and semi-sheer with a lovely moderate sheen. It also happens to be very economical so it is great for students and class projects. Everyone likes this stuff; you will too. The 8mm is the one most often seen, and of which our Habotai scarves are made. We also carry heavier weights (10mm-16mm) for when you need more substance, and a lighter more sheer weight (5mm).

This silk is the perfect weight for dance veils. So colorful when dyed. My troupe loves the full 3 yard veils I made for us to dance with. I love the way it moves and responds. Much nicer than the 5mm habotai for dancing which we found to be too thin to float well.

So far, I like this weight better than I do, the 5mm. It is a little bit heavier, but still flows freely, when using it as a flag. I am using it for dyeing and painting. I have dyed maybe two flags so far and it seems to be ok. The 5mm weight fabric is just too thin for me, because it pricks very easy. This kind, seems to be more of what I am looking for as far as weight. The fabric is very pretty and is packaged very carefully.
