100% Fine Mulberry Silk – Jaipur is such a beautiful, gleaming, smooth and drapey yarn.
Super soft and perfect for anyone with wool allergies. Silk will keep you cool in the Summer and warm in the Winter.Â
We think it’s perfect for drapey shawls and light garments alike. Absolutely blissful to work with and even more amazing to wear!Note: The super glossy surface and the lack of elasticity of non-animal fibres results in a tendency to grow after washing. We recommend this is taken into consideration when swatching. It may lengthen by about 10%.
Also: Silk absorbs a lot of dye stuff. Some bleeding of darker colors is unavoidable. Please rinse in vinegar water until clear before mixing with light colors or wearing on a white blouse.

BC Garn was founded in Denmark in the 90s by Bo Carstensen, son of a weaver and a carpet wool trader. So it’s no wonder that their high-quality line up is all about colour!
Their core business has evolved from weaving yarns to the production of luxury organic and ecologically-conscious hand knitting yarns at great prices.
Many of BC Garn’s yarns are certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) – the highest international standard for organic fibre production.
