Pure Silk is a soft, exclusive yarn of pure bourette silk (raw silk) produced from silk fibers collected from cocoons after the chrysalises mature into moths and escape.The Silk is cruelty free. The silk fibers are collected from cocoons after the chrysalises mature into moths and escape. This means that the silkworms are not killed in the process as they are inconventional silk production.Silk has extensive heat-regulating qualities and can therefore be used in garments all year round. Silk can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture while still feeling dry against your skin, so it is especially suitable for summer wear. At the same time, silk, like wool, has insulating properties, retaining heat in cold weather.The yarn is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified, and the little butterfly on the label indicates that the chrysalids evolve into butterflies, thereby allowing them to complete their life cycle.Our spinning mill follows ethical, technical- and environmental standards creating yarns free from harmful chemicals.
