g/ml or g/m²: how to convert a fabric’s weight
g/ml tells you what the metre you buy weighs, g/m² what the fabric itself weighs. The formula, a table by width, and when to look at which.
Twill (also called sergé) is a technique that makes oblique stripes appear in the weft of the fabric. On silk, this technique allows to add a beautiful texture to an already supple and silky fabric.
This light champagne silk twill is ideal for making dresses, skirts, jackets but also for lining suits or making accessories such as ties, squares and scarves.
Silk twill made in Italy.
