Silk habotai (or pongee) is the classic silk, the weave most readily available. It is versatile and comes in an assortment of weights, all with fantastic drape and sheen. It takes a bit more work to felt than some of the other variants but is well worth the effort for the shine of the finished product!
This piece is a 33×44” habotai scarf blank in yellow, green, orange, and brown.
All of my nuno silks have unfinished edges. Some may have one or two selvedge edges but all have at least some raw edges. You can finish these by felting over them, rolling and stitching, or just leave them as-is for an extra rustic look.
