Seduced by silk

There's just something about the way silk feels to work with. I've had a chance to experiment with embroidery with silk fibres, and I thought that was incredible enough, but knitting with silk is really wild.

Even the roughest-spun of the recycled sari silk has a smoothness (yes, dare I say it? a silkiness) that you don't get with anything else.

What do you think of  these silk socks?

I'm expecting them to be my "Sheesh, this bed is cold" socks.

Love the play of colours, too.
