ITO Kinu is a luxurious yet eco-friendly yarn made from 100% bourette silk—often called organic silk because it’s created from the spinning residues of filament silk. This sustainable process gives the yarn a unique melange texture and a naturally soft, matte finish that feels incredible against the skin.
With so many gorgeous colors to choose from, ITO Kinu offers endless creative possibilities. Hold it single, or double it for a heavier gauge with more structure. You can hold two colors together for a gorgeous marl - subtle or bold.
It’s perfect for lightweight summer tops, elegant shawls, and layering pieces, and it pairs beautifully with other ITO yarns for unique textures and color effects. Whether you knit it single-stranded for airy fabrics or hold it double (fingering weight) Kinu makes a stunning fabric.
