Khiynit

A type of gossamer silk that is harvested from the sand spiders of the Velaka, with great difficulty, by weavers within that region. The spiders are fed on a diet of yeehar blood laced with fiber from the iroepi root and hhyssk'et berry. The silk has a rough texture, and only comes in desert hues. Very strong and malleable.
Introduced by Hhtuassa, and is currently the only merchant working with it. She only works for S'Kra Murs.

Marblesilk

Marblesilk is a product of a specific Prydaen family that is made as a solid piece. It is created as one solid piece, and any attempt to cut it into smaller pieces (such as for alterations) will cause it to completely unravel.[1]

Moonsilk

A very pale blue silk with an opalescent sheen, stone-washed to give it a heavy texture and a slight nap.

Shadesatin

Shadesatin is a type of satin that has a very high thread count and is difficult to make because it's spun from very fine threads of silver to make a high gloss sheen.  It holds color well and is called shadesatin because it tends to create shadows in the fabric depending on the light in the area.
