Crystal Palace Panda Silk in Pearl Blue

Crystal Palace Panda Silk is a fingering-weight bamboo–merino–silk blend with beautiful sheen, drape, and soft hand. The smooth plied strand works up into breathable, flowing fabric with crisp stitches, making it a lovely choice for shawls, lightweight scarves, cowls, tops, and baby or next-to-skin pieces that show off both lace and simple textures. The mix of bamboo for coolness, superwash merino for bounce, and silk for strength and glow makes this discontinued base a really special find.
