This silk yarn is from their Eco friendly collection and uses raw silk known as Bourette. The fibre is spun from waste Silkworm cocoons and is a slightly bumpy, uneven yarn, soft and completely matte.

What to make? - Great in a single strand for summer tops, camisoles and sweaters. This is the perfect yarn to make a Cumulus Tee by PetiteKnit, this version has a round neck, or you can try the classic V neck. See them on Ravelry here.
