There's no dye lot in sari yarn, really that is the beauty of using recycled silk. Each hank has its own individuality and everything you make from the yarn is its own work of art, completely unique.

Yarn Content = 100% banana fibre

Rec needle size = 5-6mm
Often described as a vegan alternative to silk, banana fibre has the versatility of silk and can be spun to produce a range of yarns from tight and smooth to looser, fuzzier skeins.
This yarn has been spun tightly to form a strong, thick yarn with a gorgeous sheen and a lovely slubby texture. Knitted on 5-6mm needles it forms a richly textured and surprisingly stretchy fabric which is ideal for posh market bags or an unusual gilet.
Banana fibre comes from the bark of banana trees, which are indigenous to many parts of the world, and this lovely white colour is the undyed fibre, making this a rather green yarn. Handwash in warm water, dry flat....more |

Recycled silk yarn is handspun, each skein varies in its colorway, gauge, twist and texture. Just like the saris this yarn is made from, there is an infinite number of colour mixtures. We try to fill orders with yarn with a similar colour theme and similar gauge yarn
The yardage varies from skein per skein, the thickness and amount of twist in particular skein can make a big difference in the total yardage. If your yarn is over-twisted, letting out some of the twist will make it easier to work with and maximize your yardage , approxmatly 80 yards
