Unbloiled silk = Raw Silk
After the dereeling of the silk from the cocoons you have what is called the raw silk
in this context RAW that means not worked on by any ohter means and that we are talking of the pure base product
do not let yourself be fooled by this terminology
it is not because of this term RAW that is feels raw sturdy or whatever
the touch of silk is only atchiefed by twisting or not twisting and making differend mixes of differend twists,
that is the reason soem silk feels harsh and other feels as soft as ,,,,

around +-30% of the raw silk is silkglue better known as sericine
