I enjoy tying north country spiders however traditional pearsalls silk is quite difficult to get.
Recently Ive been looking for a suitable alternative and very pleased to note that semperfli pure silk an excellent substitute as the colours are very very close to the original pearsalls and retain that old traditional look.
I would have no hesitation in recommending semperfli pure silk and look forward to purchasing some more in different colours.
