Sari border ribbon yarn for fibre art.

Glittering, ornate, and full of story — our Sari Border Ribbon Yarn is made from the decorative edgings of traditional Indian saris, cut and sewn end to end into a continuous yarn threaded with metallic detail.

Each skein is entirely one-of-a-kind, with its own unique combination of colours, patterns, and metallic threads. The images shown give a sense of the beautiful variety you can expect — but your skein will be a unique treasure, unlike any other.

A truly special yarn that brings texture, shimmer, and cultural richness to a wide range of makes:

• Tapestry weaving and mixed-media wall art
• Knitting and crochet with a decorative, statement finish
• Fibre art installations and textile collage
• Jewellery making and beaded accessories
• Journal making, scrapbooking, and paper crafts
• Basket weaving and woven home décor
• Gift wrapping and artisan packaging

• Made from recycled sari border trimmings — a beautiful use of textile waste
• Ethically produced by women's artisan cooperatives in India
• Every purchase supports education, employment, and financial independence for women and their families

100g skein, approximately 25 yards.
