If you are arthritic or have carpal tunnel syndrome this is the fiber for you! It stitches so smoothly and is very easy on your hands. I personally am able to stitch 3 times longer when I stitch with essentials than I do with any other fiber.

Please be advised if you are going to stitch silk on a belt, keychain, or dog collar that it is not waterproof and runs the risk of the color bleeding. I stitch silk on all of these, but just make sure that I do not put the product into situations where they will be drenched in water or sweat.
