Floss

Floss is a short silk fibre or waste that cannot be reeled or spun.

The term floss can also specifically refer to the soft, loose fibres obtained from the smooth inner skin of the silk cocoon left after the reeling has been completed.

See also the TRC Needles entries on floss silk and filoselle silk.
