Silk yarns bring an unmatched elegance to knitting, offering softness, sheen, and an effortless drape that makes them ideal for lightweight, breathable garments. Whether you’re looking for the pure luxury of 100% silk or the enhanced texture and durability of a silk blend, there’s a perfect yarn for every project.
In our Silk for Spring collection, we’ve curated patterns that highlight the beauty of silk, from airy shawls to delicate cardigans. Many of these designs feature silk blends that combine the best qualities of multiple fibers—silk with linen for a crisp, summery feel; silk with wool for added warmth and elasticity; or silk with cashmere for unmatched softness. These blends not only enhance the characteristics of silk but also provide structure, resilience, and comfort, making them ideal for transitional spring pieces.
This yarn round-up showcases some of the finest silk and silk-blend yarns available, perfect for incorporating into your next warm-weather knitting project. Whether you’re drawn to the luxurious drape of Mulberry Silk, the slightly rustic charm of Tussah Silk, or the versatility of silk-enhanced blends, you’ll find a yarn here that inspires your creativity and elevates your spring wardrobe.
