Reclaimed Cotton Ribbon
Cotton ribbon allows you the flexibility to just throw your projects into the washer and dryer. I’m totally in love with the versatility of this ribbon yarn. It’s an eco-friendly way to make your projects more versatile.
Personally, I’m making a hat and mittens for when I go running on these chilly mornings. Then, I can just throw them in the wash!
The ribbon is bulky so look at starting at a min of a size 13 needle. But’s is also great for jewelry or kids projects. The cotton is reclaimed from factories that make things like T-shirts and sheets from cotton. So this ribbon has some stretch to it just like your own cotton T-shirt would. The waste is reclaimed and brought to a small family owned mill that works with local area unprivileged women and lets them use the sewing machines that sew up the edges for a fair wage!
This soft white (non-dyed) ribbon is a 100g skein and has 85 feet
