Pure Silk for Luxurious Summer Knits
Bring a touch of quiet luxury to your warm-weather projects with Knitting for Olive’s Pure Silk. Made from 100% bourette silk, a sustainable silk spun from the short fibres left after the combing process, this yarn offers a beautifully matte, rustic texture that sets it apart from traditional glossy silks.
Light and breathable, Pure Silk is perfect for airy tops, flowing dresses, and baby garments. For a touch of glamour in cooler months, try holding it together with Soft Silk Mohair to create elegant sweaters with a dreamy halo.
