The silk used in Knitting for Olive yarns is cruelty-free. Silk is made of silk threads that come from silkworms' cocoons. The cocoons are made of one single very, very long thread. In conventional silk production, the cocoons are boiled, leaving the silkworms to die. This way, the long, intact silk thread can be used. Knitting for Olive silk is made of silk threads from broken cocoons, where the silkworms have evolved into moths and escaped from the cocoon. The broken cocoon is now many short pieces of silk thread. These short silk fibers are made into yarn. This is a very time-consuming process, and the final result is less smooth than other silk because long silk threads make a smoother final silk product.

Bourette silk is cruelty free! Silk yarn is made with the silk threads that come from silk worm cocoons. An intact silk worm cocoon is made of one single very long thread. In conventional silk production the cocoons are boiled, leaving the silk worms to die. Bourette silk, on the other hand, is made from the silk threads of naturally vacated cocoons – ones from which the silk worms have completed their natural metamorphosis into moths. During this incredible process, the cocoon breaks apart leaving the silk thread in pieces. These short silk fibers are painstakingly collected and spun into yarn. Creating bourette silk is a very time consuming process resulting in a more rustic, but no less luxurious strand of yarn.
