Knitting for Olive Pure Silk is a soft and luxurious yarn made of pure raw silk. It is made from silk fibers that have been collected and produced into yarn after the silkworm larvae have flown on their journeys from their open cocoons.

Silk has extensive heat-regulating properties, so it can be used in clothes all year round. Silk can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture, but still feels dry against the skin, making it particularly suitable for summer use. At the same time, silk, like wool, has insulating properties that retain warmth in cold weather.
The small butterfly on the label indicates that the larvae have been allowed to develop into butterflies, allowing them to complete their life cycle.
