One of a kind, not repeatable. What is a silk lap?? When silk cocoons are carded, the shorter, clumpier fibers are left behind on the carding machine drum. The fibers build up and then they are removed in big sheets (each sheet is one lap around the drum). Silk laps are lightly textured with varying lengths of silk fibers and some chunks. They are actually quite easy to spin, and have a wonderful feel when drafting.
