Product information "BC Garn Soft Silk - 001 Pure white"
BC Garn Soft Silk yarn - 100% bourette silk with a noticeable texture. Knitters often choose it for summer tops.
Which seasons is silk yarn suitable for?
Silk keeps you warm in winter and cool on a hot day, so it can be worn across different seasons. Some people use the knitted fabric in layered clothing between seasons.
Is it suitable for children’s clothing?
Yes: crafters use it to make clothes for babies and children. Some appreciate the textured yarn because it forgives small mistakes in the pattern.
How many hanks do I need for a jumper?
Check the yarn requirements in the knitting pattern for your size. Compare the thickness and tension in the specifications with the pattern; use 3–3.5 mm circular needles as a guide and choose a different size if the tension does not match.
Make a tension square and wash it to check your tension. If you need a different texture for another project, another BC Garn yarn may suit you.

BC Garn Soft Silk
The fabric turns out very pretty and is comfortable to wear in summer, between seasons and in winter. Lots of interesting, complex shades.
Not drawbacks, just things to note. A garment made with the black yarn releases a lot of dye into the water on its first wash; I haven't washed it a second time yet, so I can't say about that. And it's better to knit a little more tightly so the garment doesn't stretch too much.
I've knitted this yarn twice using the 'V otpusk' T-shirt pattern: in 'Wormwood' for myself and in the black 'Crow' shade for my daughter. The yarn is very pleasant to work with and the garment is comfortable to wear. By the way, the T-shirt pattern is excellent: if you choose the right needles for the required gauge, no adjustments are needed, and the garment fits well even on a figure that is hard to fit.

An interesting, uneven texture that creates little nubs in the fabric. A distinctive smell that remained even after washing and blocking. Economical yarn use.
The first hank knitted up in unevenly dyed stripes; the second was uniform.
I bought two hanks in Cornflower quite a while ago and spent a long time considering a project. In the end, I knitted a basic T-shirt with saddle shoulders, a proper size M! From two hanks)

Very soft, the colours are beautiful and it is pleasant to knit with.
The price certainly isn't low, but you don't need much yarn.
Very pleasant silk, uneven, almost as though it has little pills in it, but this looks beautiful in the fabric. It doesn't have a pronounced silk sheen, which I consider an advantage for everyday garments.

Luxurious. Soft and delicate, with a matte, elegant sheen. The yarn is uneven, and that is its charm. It forms neat, even stitches. I knitted swatches on different needles and settled on 2.75 mm, just as the shop owner recommended. I washed the swatches with a special jasmine-scented silk detergent bought here too, which I love in its own right: such a wonderful, barely perceptible fragrance, and garments washed with it become fluid and incredibly pleasant to the touch. This is the best bourette silk; it is so beautiful that I don't want to put it down!

The yarn feels unusual, but it is a pleasure to knit with and even better in the finished garment. A beautiful colour palette. I knitted it together with Tilia mohair, and the feel is pure bliss!

I knitted a sweater for my child and a top for myself with this yarn. I'm very happy with the results. The yarn is nice to work with. It looks textured and neat in stockinette stitch. It doesn't hold ribbing, but the ribbing still looks good. Both my child and I like the smell of the yarn. I'll knit with it again)

So, I've finished my second sweater in Soft Silk( And I'm sad because I've found my summer yarn. To me, it's perfect (apart from the huge amount of prickly debris in it). I knitted both garments with 3 mm needles, loosely, without pulling the yarn tight, and each took 4 hanks with some left over. It doesn't hold ribbing, as expected, but after washing and blocking my sweaters didn't stretch widthwise, which shocked me because I'd really been counting on that. I had to stretch them by force after washing and blocking them again. This yarn has so much character of its own that I don't think it needs cables or patterns; smelling it and looking at it is mesmerising) When I walked the dog in the woods wearing the sweater, I noticed as I came out that it had grown longer, and when I took it off, it was heavier too. Soft Silk is a magnet for damp places: it absorbs moisture and can even leave you feeling cold (it was +22 degrees), so this is 100% a summer option. Thank you for the chance to fall in love with this yarn!!!!

My beautiful yarn has arrived! Such lovely yarn. The hanks have been wound into neat balls (the service is free, but you need to write that you would like them wound). Unfortunately, the photo doesn't capture how beautiful this yarn is. It smells wonderful and feels indescribable. I melt with pleasure when I touch it!

I decided to try this yarn and didn't regret it. I joined a knitalong and knitted the sport_chic T-shirt in SOFT SILK, and again had no regrets! The yarn stretches a little after washing and blocking, which needs to be taken into account when knitting the garment. Sometimes there are little sticks in the yarn, but removing them as you knit is no problem. For size M, 2 hanks were enough, with a little left over. There is a slightly sour smell, but it airs out over time. It doesn't hold ribbing; the T-shirt feels very pleasant against the skin, and the unevenness of the yarn gives the fabric an unusual look.

Very pleasant yarn! I knitted a T-shirt and used two hanks for size M. After washing, the floats become hidden and the fabric grows even softer. The garment feels very pleasant against the skin. After washing and blocking, the fabric stretches a little, which is worth allowing for when knitting.
