SUPERIOR QUALITY NEPALESE SILK SARI YARN KNITTING

100 GRAMS OR 3.53 OZS SKEIN

SUPERIOR QUALITY NEPALESE RECYCLED SARI SILK YARN

RED GOLD

This yarn is a byproduct of the colourful saris manufactured in India. The ends trimmed from the looms are collected and sent to Nepal to be spun by village women into this colourful yarn. The waste is hand spun on the Charkha Wheel which produces a  spun single yarn.

This quality yarn is  soft and beautifully spun the very best available from Nepal

Because of the method of producing this yarn each skein is unique, it is not created in dye lots. When using more than one ball it is best to alternate balls for a beautiful variegated look. I do have more of this yarn listed in my store.  

I DO HAVE MORE OF THIS YARN LISTED IN MY STORE IN  BRIGHT JEWEL COLOURS

The yarn can be knitted on 3.5 MM needles up to 10 MM all depending on the desired garment finish. Use a tighter tension to made up bags or rugs or a looser tension for sweaters,  scarves or ponchos. This yarn lends itself beautifully to be combined with other yarns to give dramatic effects.

Because of the construction of the yarn the length for 100 grams does vary but is approximately 175 metres or 190 yards for those knitters who work using length.
