Ice Blue - 4 ply Tussah silk singles - Sulkazura

On Sulkazura, the tussah silk base, Ice Blue deepens into a cooler, slightly moodier blue with soft grey undertones. The rustic texture of the silk breaks the colour gently, giving it a weathered, mineral quality rather than a polished shine. Flecks and natural variation in the fibre add quiet depth, so the blue feels like ice edged with stone — still cool and light, but with an earthy, grounded character that makes the shade feel organic and quietly complex.

Sulkazura – 4 Ply Tussah Silk

Sulkazura is a distinctive 4 ply yarn spun from 100% tussah silk, celebrating the raw, organic nature of this beautiful fibre. Unlike smooth cultivated silk, tussah silk retains a gently rustic texture with visible character throughout the strand, giving your knitting and crochet a sense of depth and movement.

Despite its earthy feel, Sulkazura carries a soft, understated sheen that catches the light in a quiet, elegant way. The yarn has a pleasing substance in the hand, feeling slightly bulky for a 4 ply, which makes it especially satisfying to work with and ideal for projects where texture matters.

At 400 metres per 100 grams, Sulkazura offers generous yardage, and most skeins are slightly overweight, giving you a little extra silk to play with. It works beautifully for shawls, wraps, textured garments, and statement accessories where stitch definition and drape can really shine.
