The SemperFli pure silk is very thick. This I do know. I think it is better tied like silk floss.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

It sounds like Semperfli didn't put in the effort they claim. They obviously had the resources to know what was required.
