100% natural silk, 100% domestic (but the cocoons are not Koishimaru), from Gunma Prefecture, about 1000g (1 bundle about 160g) Infinite uses, including knitting, weaving, and crafts. If you treat kibiso with alkali, it becomes silk floss. It was also featured on TV (Asaichi)
Everyone knows that silk thread is made from cocoons, but the silkworm diligently eats mulberry leaves and works hard to make thread, and as a result, the shape of a cocoon is born. When I see that white cocoon, I somehow feel like I want to thank the mystery of nature and say, "Thank you, silkworm." Cocoons can be called the pinnacle of white beauty created by nature. "Kibiso" is the first thread that the silkworm spits out. It is the first slightly hard thread that is pulled out to find the thread from the cocoon, and when it is dried, it becomes "kibiso." It is rich in the water-soluble protein sericin and has all the properties of silk, such as antibacterial properties, moisture absorption, high flame resistance, UV protection, and antioxidant properties. It is said to be used as an ingredient in skin care products. When spinning raw silk, it is necessary to find the thread. The method is to move a brush (used to comb hair) in hot water to remove uneven (unstable) areas of fineness around the cocoon so that a single thread can be neatly drawn. Then, a uniform thread is spun. This is the raw material for Kibiso thread. The outside of the cocoon is the first step that the silkworm takes before spitting it out. It is still in the training stage where it cannot spin a neat thread. So how do you make it into thread? The rubbish is collected and made into a lump, which is then pulled out by hand like silk floss. The rare Kibiso thread is characterized by its luster and very softness. It is difficult to weave because it has a lot of thickness and thinness like silk floss, and there are wraps here and there. Recently, there are not many places that manufacture it, so it is a valuable thread that is difficult to obtain. By the way, the kanji is written as kibiso.
