ITO Kinu is a beautifully textured yarn made from 100% bourette silk, sometimes referred to as organic silk. It is produced using the leftover fibers from filament silk spinning, making it an environmentally conscious choice with a distinctive character. This production method gives Kinu its signature melange appearance and a softly matte finish.
