This multi-color recycled sari silk yarn is made from reclaimed sari fabric thread remnants that are joined and lightly spun into a one-of-a-kind yarn cake. Every ball is a surprise mix of bright candy tones and deeper jewel shades—perfect when you want color, texture, and a handmade look without complicated stitches.

Considered a worsted-weight “craft yarn,” but it’s intentionally organic: you’ll see slubs, slight thickness changes, and occasional joins where threads were connected. That character is what makes finished pieces look dimensional and special.

Color + texture that turns simple stitches into a statement

Recycled sari silk has a soft hand feel that continues to get softer with use, developing a more beautiful natural sheen over time. The lightly spun structure gives you an artisanal finish that’s hard to replicate with standard yarns.

What you’ll notice while you work

• 100% recycled sari silk fabric thread remnants for a sustainable, reuse-first material with natural sheen
• One-of-a-kind multi-color blends—no two balls are the same
• Lightly spun, joined construction that creates a rustic, textured look (knots/joins can occur)
• Drapey, dense feel with minimal stretch (silk has very little elasticity), ideal for structured pieces
• Great as an accent yarn—carry it along with wool, alpaca, or cotton to add a pop of color and texture
• Available as a 1-pack or 2-pack so you can plan for accents or larger projects

Best for bold accessories, weaving, décor, and mixed media

Product details

Note: Because this yarn is made from recycled fabric remnant threads, you may see knots/joins, variations in thickness, and occasional tiny bits of organic matter that can be picked out as you work. Color combinations vary widely—no two balls are identical.

FAQs

Is this ribbon yarn or “regular” yarn?

It’s made from reclaimed sari fabric remnant threads that are joined and lightly spun, so it behaves like a non-plied-style recycled silk yarn. Expect visible texture and occasional joins.

Will my ball look like the photos?

The overall style will match (multi-color recycled sari silk), but the exact colors and transitions vary from ball to ball.

Does it have stretch?

Very little. Keep your knitting or crochet tension relaxed so the fabric drapes nicely and feels comfortable to work with.

Are knots normal?

Yes. Strips are joined to create a continuous strand, so small knots or join points are part of the recycled construction and the handmade look.

How many balls do I need?

Each 100g cake contains about 50 yards. It’s excellent for accents and smaller statement projects. For larger pieces, we recommend purchasing enough at once for a cohesive overall look (and choosing the 2-pack when you want extra yardage).

Will the colors bleed?

Some saturated dyes can release color. Follow the care instructions and consider a first wash in cold water with white vinegar to help set color.
