Mary Corbet has written about a new thread--silk gimp. As I have never seen a silk thread I don't love, of course I am enthralled by the possibilities!

It's not going to be easy to find, but it is possible to hunt down using the links in the article above. I suspect silk gimp is probably made by Access Commodities, if that helps you narrow your search. It isn't on their website, however.

Pipers Silks in England also advertises silk gimp.

UPDATE: Mary shows off another type of silk gimp.
