What is twill silk? What are the characteristics of twill silk? Twill is used for silk fabrics. Twill is of course a silk fabric with diagonal grain. Twill is just a textile method. Cotton, wool and other fabrics also have twill. Twill fabrics are generally softer, and silk twill is no exception, so many silk scarves and scarves are made of twill. However, twill silk is still not as soft as crepe and soft satin, so it is generally not used in the production of bedding, pajamas, and pillowcases. In addition, the luster of twill silk is close to matte, so it is not as shiny as crepe satin, so it is suitable for people with a restrained style.

The most common thickness of twill silk is 12mm-16mm. It should be noted that the thickness of twill silk cannot be compared with the thickness of crepe satin, just as the thickness of crepe de chine cannot be compared with crepe satin. If the crepe satin is 12mm, it can probably only be used for lining, but if the 12mm twill is not transparent, it can be used for clothes. One of my printed twills is 10mm, and it looks like nothing when worn in summer. It feels like wearing clothes, very comfortable. 16mm crepe satin can only be regarded as a basic thickness, but 16mm twill silk feels more solid.
There are many types of silk fabrics, which require patient and careful analysis to understand thoroughly. Being able to distinguish silk types is also a skill.
