Frizzle and Sizzle breeding

I wouldn't recommend breeding two frizzled bird's together as 1/4 of the offspring will get two copies of the frizzle gene and wind up frazzled, with poor feather quality leading to skin issues and general poor health.

Frizzle is an incomplete dominant gene, one copy of the gene gives frizzled offspring, two copies results in undesirable frazzled.

Silkies feathering is recessive and requires two copies (one from each parent) to express.
