Eterna Silk Floss
Eterna Silk Floss is a six strand floss manufactured in China
and dyed in the USA. The strands
are slightly thicker than normal cotton floss but they are
not tightly twisted together so the strands are very easily
separated for use. This type of silk is also known as
"flat spun" and is also referred to as stranded silk
or flat silk. It's generally used for needlepoint, embroidery
and other needle arts.
From top to bottom the colors are: light green, green, dark green, gold, silver, wheat, brown.
I use all six strands to wrap a stem and completely flatten the silk
using my thumb and forefinger to undo the slight twist as I wrap.
$0.95 per skein (each skein is 5 meters or 16.4 feet)
