NY designer 'knit-purl-zip' silk woven
contents: 100% silk
width: 44"
origin: NY designer
This fantastic conversational lightweight silk woven print from a NY designer is nearly opaque with a soft drape. The weight similar to charmeuse but with a matte finish. The 'knit-purl-zip' print, in beige, mocha and cream (PANTONE 12-0605, 17-1321, etc.), has a 3" border of photorealistic zippers along one selvage, a cenrtal area of magnified knit stitch, and a 10" border along the other selvage of super-magnified purl stitch. Please note that the fabric itself is a silk WOVEN---it is just the print that mimics the look of a knit! Manipulate the different areas to create any number of fun and creative garments! You can mix and match directions, but the drape seems just a tad stiffer across the grain. Perfect for a blouse, tunic, fun lining for a lightweight jacket, skirt, dress, etc. Dry clean or please test first if you wish to hand wash, and hang to dry.
