[0011] (First embodiment) A photograph of a silk blend fabric 1 according to this embodiment is shown in Figure 1. The silk blend fabric 1 of this embodiment uses silk yarn (84 denier) for the warp and wood yarn blend (No. 5 yarn) for the weft. The wood yarn blend is a blend of softwood yarn and hemp yarn. In this embodiment, the wood yarn blend uses cedar yarn as a softwood yarn, and the ratio of cedar yarn to hemp yarn is approximately 1:1, but this does not necessarily have to be 1:1. The cedar yarn is used to achieve an appropriate firmness due to the use of hemp yarn. For this reason, the proportion of cedar yarn may be greater than the proportion of hemp yarn to reduce the firmness, or conversely, the proportion of cedar yarn may be less than the proportion of hemp yarn. In addition to cedar thread, wood threads made from coniferous trees such as cypress, cypress leaf, rattan, sawa, red pine, black pine, dwarf pine, Japanese larch, Japanese larch, and fir may also be used. Wood threads made from broad-leaved trees (e.g., China chinaberry, chestnut, cherry, and zelkova) may also be used. Cotton threads may be included in the wood thread blend, and paper mulberry fiber threads may be used instead of hemp threads. Furthermore, wood thread blends may be blends of coniferous and broad-leaved tree threads, or blends of coniferous, broad-leaved tree, and hemp threads, or threads made from plants other than hemp (e.g., paper mulberry). Figure 2 is a photograph of indigo dyeing of a silk blend fabric 1 according to this embodiment. The silk blend fabric 1 according to this embodiment is easier to indigo dye than pure silk fabrics or silk and hemp blend fabrics. Furthermore, the silk blend fabric 1 according to this embodiment can be dyed with madder more easily than pure silk fabrics or silk and linen blend fabrics. Furthermore, the silk blend fabric 1 according to this embodiment can be dyed with suminagashi more easily than pure silk fabrics or silk and linen blend fabrics. While this embodiment uses silk threads for the warp and wood yarn blend for the weft, it is also possible to use silk threads blended with wood yarn for the warp and silk thread for the weft.

[0012] The silk blend fabric 1 according to this embodiment has the following effects. (a) The luxury of silk is not diminished even if the amount of silk used is reduced. (i) It is possible to make the firmness moderate. (c) It has better strength and abrasion resistance than a blend of silk and linen threads.

[0013] (Second embodiment) The silk blend fabric 2 of this embodiment uses silk yarn (84 denier) for the warp and wood yarn blend (20 count yarn) for the weft. The wood yarn blend is a blend of softwood yarn, hemp yarn, and silk yarn. In this embodiment, cedar yarn is used as the softwood yarn. In addition to cedar yarn, wood yarns of softwood species such as cypress, cypress leaf, rattan, sawa, red pine, black pine, dwarf pine, Japanese larch, Japanese larch, and fir may also be used. Wood yarns of hardwood species (e.g., China chinaberry, chestnut, cherry, and zelkova) may also be used. Cotton yarns may also be included in the wood blend, and paper mulberry fiber yarns may be used instead of hemp yarns. In this embodiment, the wood blend yarns have a ratio of cedar yarn, hemp yarn, and silk yarn of approximately 1:1:1, but this does not necessarily have to be approximately 1:1:1. In this embodiment, the blend is made of 20 count yarn and a thinner yarn than that of the first embodiment. By blending silk yarn, it is possible to increase the tensile strength. In this embodiment, silk yarn is used for the warp yarn and a blend of wood yarn is used for the weft yarn, but it is also possible to use a blend of silk yarn and wood yarn for the warp yarn and silk yarn for the weft yarn.

[0014] The silk blend fabric 2 according to this embodiment has the following effects. (a) The luxury of silk is not diminished even if the amount of silk used is reduced. (i) It is possible to make the firmness moderate. (c) It has better strength and abrasion resistance than a blend of silk and linen threads.

[0015] (Third embodiment) The silk blend fabric 3 of this embodiment uses silk threads for the warp and wood threads for the weft. Wood threads are coniferous threads, and in this embodiment, cedar threads are used. In addition to cedar threads, wood threads of coniferous trees such as cypress, cypress leaf, rattan, sawa, red pine, black pine, dwarf pine, Japanese larch, Japanese larch, fir, etc. may also be used, or wood threads of broad-leaved trees (e.g., China chinaberry, chestnut, cherry, zelkova, etc.) may also be used. Cotton threads may also be included in the wood blend, or paper mulberry fiber threads may be used instead of hemp threads. While this embodiment uses silk threads for the warp and wood threads for the weft, wood threads may also be used for the warp and silk threads for the weft. The silk blend fabric 3 according to this embodiment has the following effects. (a) The luxury of silk is not diminished even if the amount of silk used is reduced. (i) It can reproduce a firmness similar to that of silk. (c) It has better strength and abrasion resistance than a blend of silk and linen threads.
