Sari silk ribbon. Deep emerald green. SOLD OUT

Sari silk ribbon in a deep jewel toned emerald green. Each skein unique as these ribbon yarns are made from waste silk fabrics.

Beautiful handcut strips of sari silk transformed into fabulous ribbon yarn. Handmade from waste silk destined for landfill. These beautiful craft ribbons are suitable for knitting, crochet weaving, rug hooking, wall hangings and fibre arts.

Our sari silk ribbon has been handmade by a group of women we support in rural India. The artisans hand tear strips of sari silk and sew it end to end to form a continuous yarn. Each piece of sari silk, each skein of ribbon yarn has it's own personality, each skein unique.
