A kind and exclusive cotton yarn, which is both organic and plant dyed. The yarn is dyed by plants naturally found in Peru, and of course the entire production is environmentally friendly. The plant colors makes the entire palette harmonious, and the creamy but fresh colors are exceptionally pretty. The yarn is spun with a thin strand binding the thicker strand, making it perfect for lightweight garments and blankets, as there are no small strands that risk getting caught.

We are very proud of this yarn, particularly as it provides employment in some of the poorest areas of Peru. They receive more than the minimum wage, and the project supports education for their children and provides a sustainable income.
