This is silk, but not as you know it. Seta Bourette is made from the short fibres left over after smooth silk is processed, and what sounds like a byproduct turns out to be one of the most characterful, beautiful yarns you can knit with. Unlike smooth silk, which is cool and shiny, bourette silk is warm, matte, and wonderfully textured.
The natural nubs and irregularities in the fibre give every finished piece an organic, handmade quality that looks as beautiful in simple stockinette stitch as it does in complex lace.
