Knitting4fun imports recycled sari silks direct from Nepal.
Recycled Silk yarn is undoubtedly the most unique yarn you will ever encounter. Silk sari thrums from India's weaving mills are handspun by women's cooperatives and cottage industries in Nepal into gleaming silk skeins. Many of these women are refugees or have been abandoned or widowed with families to support. Using their traditional skills they are able to create vibrant, textured yarn in a endless array of colorways. Each Recycled Silk skein is handspun creating natural inconsistencies and a rather scrappy nature; to make any project, no matter how simple in design, instantly charming and unique. We import the finest yarns available, direct from Nepal. The colors are vibrant and it is spun evenly. It is without a doubt the most lovely sari silk yarn available.
