Description

Silk sliver / roving from Treenway Silks is created by carding or combing the shorter fibers, which are then drawn into long bundles where the fiber is somewhat parallel. When sliver is drawn further and given a slight twist, it becomes roving. The two terms, sliver and roving, are often interchanged.
