Description
Knitting for Olive - Pure Silk
Pure Silk from Knitting for Olive is a pure and noble bourette silk yarn. The silk is collected after the caterpillar has already left the cocoon and is therefore animal friendly. Silk is a heat regulating fiber and can therefore be worn super all year round. Of course, this fine yarn is especially suitable for beautiful summer knitting.
Responsibility
Knitting for Olive places a very high value on ethical, animal-friendly, sustainable and eco-friendly standards. Their yarns are free of chemicals, making them suitable for allergy sufferers and babies.

I knitted the Suri shirt by Caidree from this beautiful yarn and am very pleased with the result. It is very pleasant to work with and after washing the shirt has the beautiful flowing character that silk is known for. I cannot confirm the comment that the finished item becomes longer after washing. I have already worn it several times and find the Pure Silk yarn simply perfect for summer knitwear.

Hello,
has anyone had any experience with this yarn? I am thinking of knitting The Millers Daughter by Melanie Berg from it.

Dear Nicole, that should fit 🙂 For a shawl, a slightly different gauge is not as crucial as for a sweater or cardigan. If you need help with the amount of yarn, feel free to send us an email to "support@maschenfein.de". Best wishes and have fun knitting! Sophia
