Are there any implementations of SSH in pure python? Preferably open source?
I'm specifically looking for a client, not server.

SSH is widely used by network administrators for managing systems and applications remotely, allowing them to log in to another computer over a network, execute commands and move files from one computer to another. In python SSH is implemented by using the python library called fabric.
Paramiko does not itself leverage OpenSSH-style config file directives, but it does implement a parser for the format, which users can honor themselves (and is used by higher-level libraries, such as Fabric).
Paramiko is a Python library that makes a connection with a remote device through SSh. Paramiko is using SSH2 as a replacement for SSL to make a secure connection between two devices.
Try paramiko.

There is no pure Python library for SSH. paramiko is not pure python, because it doesn't work without pyCrypto dongle. It may carry a pure Python implementation of SSH protocol, but it is not usable as a pure Python library - you still need to install binary pyCrypto extension compiled for your platform, and there is no replacement.
