Pure Silk - Fingering Weight Yarn
Knitting For Olive Pure Silk is our favorite sustainable, ethically produced silk yarn. We adore this yarn for all things summer knitting--tanks, tees, lightweight dresses... you name it!
Silk has beautiful qualities of heat regulation and can be worn either as a summer solo piece or as a layer in the winter.
Made of leftover silk fibers from normal silk processing, this 100% bourette silk also comes from silk that has been processed only after the moths have escaped, rather than boiling the cocoon whole with the moth in it.
This particular yarn is OEKO-TEX certified, which means that the mill follows strict ethical, technical, and environmental standards.
Made in Italy.
Usually ships in 3-5 business days.
