Pure Silk – Vanilla

This yarn feels smooth and cool to the touch, a very different experience compared to most handknitting yarns made from wool. Mulberry silk is a very good insulator and quickly absorbs/releases moisture, making it easy to wear from autumn through winter to spring. Use the Pure Silk yarn if you want to change up your knitting with a new texture and/or if you need something drapy but not too thin.

Working with silk can seem like an exclusive choice, but since it tends to grow 20% in length and 10% in width after wet blocking, you will need less yarn to complete your project. I recommend making a big swatch before you start your project and let it hang a while to equilibrate.

Featherfin Yarn is rinsed with a mild detergent before hung out to air dry. But the darker colors may show some bleeding in the first wash. So I would recommend to hand wash them separately the first time.

All items from one order are shipped together. Which means that the longest processing time for the items in your cart will apply to the entire order.
