Pure Silk - Knitting For Olive

Knitting for Olive Pure Silk is a very soft yarn made from bourette silk, which is a raw silk produced from fibers collected after chrysalides mature into moths and escape, allowing them to complete their natural life cycle.

Since silk has temperature-regulating qualities, it is perfect to wear year-round.  Silk can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture while still feeling dry against the skin, making it a lovely choice for summer garments. In the cold weather, silk helps retain heat.

From fiber through the spinning process, the production of Pure Silk follows ethical and environmental standards and remains free from chemicals.
