Soft drape, rich color, and the kind of finish that makes even simple stitches look more polished.
Regal Mulberry Silk Yarn is a 100% mulberry silk, worsted-weight yarn with 200 yards in each 4 oz skein. Its spun-silk singles construction gives you the beauty of silk in a softer, more approachable form: smooth in the hand, gentle against the skin, and fluid in finished fabric. If you want a yarn that feels special without looking stiff or overly shiny, this is a beautiful choice for scarves, wraps, tops, sweaters, hats, and refined crochet pieces.
Choose silk when softness and drape matter most
Some yarns add structure. This one adds movement. Regal Mulberry Silk Yarn creates fabric with a graceful hang, soft hand, and subtle glow that looks elegant without feeling flashy. Because it is made from 100% mulberry silk, it is also breathable and a strong option for makers who prefer a non-wool fiber for warm-weather projects or next-to-skin accessories.
What makes this silk yarn feel so special
- 100% mulberry silk gives your finished work a smooth hand, breathable comfort, and a refined natural sheen.
- Worsted weight makes it versatile enough for accessories, lightweight garments, and elevated knit or crochet projects.
- 200 yards per 100 gram skein gives you useful yardage for scarves, hats, trims, smaller garments, and multi-skein statement pieces.
- Spun-silk singles construction creates a softer glow and more organic surface than slick filament-style silk yarns.
- Beautiful drape helps shawls, wraps, tops, and sweaters move naturally and feel comfortable to wear.
- Rich, saturated colorways give simple stitches a more polished, gift-worthy finish.
Best for projects you want to wear close
This yarn shines in pieces where softness, color, and drape do the heavy lifting. It is especially well suited to:
- Scarves, wraps, and shawls
- Lightweight sweaters and tops
- Beanies and soft accessories
- Elegant crochet garments and accessories
- Baby pieces and giftable handmade projects
- Select weaving projects where silk drape and sheen are part of the finish you want
What to expect while working with it
Regal Mulberry Silk Yarn glides nicely on needles and hooks and rewards a steady, gentle hand. Because this is a spun silk single rather than a tightly plied wool yarn, it is best used in projects that benefit from silk’s natural drape instead of firm structure or bounce. Swatching is especially helpful here, since silk behaves differently than wool and can relax beautifully once washed and worn.
Care that protects the finish you worked for
Hand wash cold and lay flat to dry. As with many richly dyed silk yarns, testing a swatch before wet finishing is a smart extra step, especially for deep or saturated shades. Handle wet fabric gently and support it fully while drying so your finished piece keeps its shape and smooth finish.

Questions makers often ask
Is this a shiny silk yarn?
It has a soft sheen rather than a glassy, high-polish shine. The spun-silk construction gives it a more natural, wearable finish.
Is it soft enough for next-to-skin projects?
Yes. This is a strong choice for scarves, wraps, tops, and other pieces you want to feel smooth and comfortable against the skin.
Does silk behave like wool?
Not quite. Silk has less elasticity than wool, so it drapes more and springs back less. That is part of what makes finished fabric look so graceful.
Is it beginner-friendly?
It can be, especially for a patient beginner who wants to work with silk. If you keep an even tension and handle it gently, it is very enjoyable to stitch with.
Regal Mulberry Silk Yarn brings together softness, color, and fluid drape in a way that feels polished from the first stitch to the final wear. If you are looking for a worsted-weight silk yarn that feels beautiful in the hand and even better on the body, this is a standout choice.
