recycled silk?

[rebeccav]

anyone ever bought any of this?
ebay sale (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=8118567753&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT)
looks like it would make a really neat purse... i'm just wondering about it:sheep

Oh that's beautiful, Rebecca! Wow! And it went for a great price, too. I may have to start shopping eBay again, even though my bank balance may cry out against it. Gorgeous! <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/clap.gif" />

It would be pretty as a shawl too

That is beautiful yarn, Rebecca. :wow

Shame on you for tempting me with the ebay devil. :kick

I am currently using recycled silk in a shawl.

I'm alternating rows, 2 rows double stranded black mohair and recycled silk, 2 rows just silk, then 2 rows just mohair. I'm using my Q hook to give it a lacy look.

The stuff is beautiful, but a bit slippery, and is of variable thickness, ranging from the very skinny cord to a fairly thick yarn.

In short, I love the stuff.
