Silk for vegans! Although Soybean is from a plant it is not cellulose, the fibre is actually 100% protein. It is best dyed using Acid dyes. It is very soft with a delicate shine and has a natural colour similar to tussah silk, but with a slightly apricot hue (it is important to remember that this will affect final dye colours). Spin into a sumptuous yarn or use in textile art projects, needle felting or silk papermaking.
It has a cashmere feel because the fibres are very light and flexible. It drapes like silk with a luxurious feel and has a breathable and absorbent ability.
