Our Premium Sari Silk Handspun Yarn is vibrant, exotic and made from 100% recycled sari silk remnants.

You’ll be amazed at how luscious it is to the touch.

This beautiful yarn is made from reclaimed silk threads spun into a single yarn. The depth of color achieved from the blend of threads is incredible. It's luscious and strong, perfect as an accent or for a whole project. Whether you're seeking to add a touch of elegance or embark on a larger creative endeavor, our Handspun Recycled Silk Yarn is your sustainable and luxurious companion in the world of crafting.

Gorgeous, Luminous, Unique Yarn!

I just love the rich, saturated colors present in this unique yarn. The yarn feels a little stiff and needs a little bit of coaxing here and there as one knits, however, I can already feel how it is softening with use. The visual effect of the knitted fabric is fuzzy, without stitch definition, which gives it an unusual texture. I splurged on enough yarn to make a decadent scarf, it will take some time and effort, but I want to wear these colors!

Very lovely work!!:heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

Awesome Sari Silk Yarn

This yarn is beautiful. I am working (for a while now) on a jacket made with yarn only from Darn Good Yarn. The colors are exceptional. The only issue I had was trying to roll the yarn into a ball. It was really twisted and kinked. But it was well worth the effort! You really need to see this product. Outstanding!

A little difficult to work

A little difficult to work with as it tends to wrap around itself but it made a really beautiful and warm sweater

Oh wow! That's worth it. It is so pretty!- Claudia

I love this stuff just

I love this stuff just as much for the working with it as for the finished product. It's a little hard to manage in garments, but I've made a curly scarf and a pillow cover out of it to show off the lovely colors, sheen and texture.

Hi Hallie! Woohoo! I'm happy to hear that! :)- Lynette

This yarn is so pretty, it's a little stiff but I'm loving the way it's draping and know with washing it will soften. I received this yarn in a mystery basket.

Soft, smooth and silky

I fell in love with this yarn and it became my favorites in my library of yarns. It is soft, smooth and silky, dazzling, exotic and created from 100% recycled sari silk materials. It turns out to be softer, with a exquisite sheen, as the project continues. The yarn differs in colors from inch to inch, making it distinct and original all the time, I highly recommend it. This is really good for the classic fiber art projects, or anything crazy :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: that comes in your mind.

Thank you for your detailed review, Maria!We appreciate it a lot!!:hearts::hearts:

Perfect

I do not knit but that doesnt diminish my love of this yarn. I needed a colorful and very textural yarn for a craft project and this was perfect! Love the bright colors and interest it adds to my project!

I agree with other reviewers

This yarn is gorgeous and made fun, pretty stripes for the drumstick cozy I made my hubs, but it is REALLY twisty and will wrap around itself at any opportunity. I highly recommend winding it on a yarn winder to make a cake over trying to ball it. That seems to help keep the twist spread out over the length of the yarn up until the end. If you try to make a ball you will probably go insane as the skein starts wrapping around itself almost immediately. Also, sewing it up is difficult as it tries to twist, even after I've tried to let the twist out before starting. Fortunately I was making a small piece so it didn't drive me too mad.

Im knitting my very first

Im knitting my very first sweater with this yarn. Its beautiful, and kind of a disaster. The different colors and thicknesses work up beautifully into a funky, unique piece.

Gorgeous yarn

I was looking for some yarn to weave with and found the premium sari silk handspun yarn and decided to order some. The colors are even richer than in the photo and it made a beautiful table runner. I had to order more right away. That it is fair trade is even better. I used the silk for the weft and a cotton-linen blend I had for the warp. It took me a little while to figure out the best way to wind my shuttle to keep silk from kinking a bit, but it was well worth the trouble initially to get it right, and then it was such a pleasure to weave with it and to watch the colors blending.

Thank you so much for the kind words! :blush::heart:
