10 meters (about 11 yards) of 2mm silk ribbon in Purple, color No. 703. It's 100% pure filament silk, soft enough to shape into roses and leaves and strong enough to pull through fabric again and again.

  • Width: 2mm
  • Length: 10 meters (about 11 yards) per spool
  • Material: 100% pure filament silk
  • Color: Purple, No. 703

The 2mm width is made for fine detail: stems, French knots, tiny buds, and outlines. Use it for silk ribbon embroidery, crazy quilting, couching, and doll clothing. Each color comes on its own spool, so your collection stays tidy, and the number on the spool makes it easy to reorder the same shade.

Our 2mm silk ribbon comes in 34 colors. Purple is also available in 4mm and 7mm.

The details

The finest silk, ready to stitch

Our silk ribbon is 100% pure filament silk — the highest quality you can buy. Each spool holds 10 meters (about 11 yards), and it comes in 2mm, 4mm, and 7mm widths so you can match the scale of your work.

Silk takes dye beautifully, which is why the colors come out so rich and the surface catches the light. It's soft and supple in the needle, so it gathers, folds, and shapes into petals and leaves without fighting you.

It's made for silk ribbon embroidery, and just as good for couching, crazy quilting, doll decorations, and delicate bows. Each spool keeps the ribbon tidy and tangle-free between projects.
