We want you to be able to enjoy a yarn completely made out of recycled cotton. We believe that it is important to prolong the lifespan of preexisting cotton and we want to give our customers the choice to use these fibers as long as possible.
The cotton used to manufacture Recycled Cotton is post-consumer and it mainly consists of repurposed garments, household items, etc.
The color range has all the essential shades and it is mostly toned down. Recycled Cotton has a rustic feel to it and preserves the characteristics that make cotton great: it is resistant and easy to take care of.
You can work with Recycled Cotton using 4 mm (US 6) knitting needles or a 5 mm (US H-8) crochet hook, hence your project will go by smooth and quickly.
Do you need some inspiration on what to create with this lovely yarn? We definitely recommend summer tops, trendy trousers, cardigans, dishcloths, and much more.
We cannot wait for you to enjoy our very first completely recycled cotton yarn.
NOTE: Please note that a printing error has occurred on the label: follow the yarn category, knitting needles, knitting gauge, crochet hook, and crochet gauge as shown on the website. We apologize for the inconvenience!

I recebtly purchased 20 of these lovely balls of yarn.
After reading previous reviews I expected them to not be as soft as other yarns, but was pleasantly surprised at how nice they were!
Tough, sturdy yarn, ideal for projects that require perhaps a little more rigidity? But still much softer than anticipated.
I am putting these to use as a beautiful rug for the hallway, and cannot wait to see the end result.
Definitely a recommended yarn.
Thank you, Hobbii! ☺

This cotton yarn is nice and strong, ideal for any project that needs sturdiness! The texture is a bit rough but still very pleasant to work with. I double it up with another dishcloth cotton to make a beautiful basket that hold its shape nicely and I am very satisfied with it. I love the fact that I am giving some recycled cotton a new life!

Nice and strong! I've been mking market bags from this yarn. I pull quite tight and find this yarn stays true. No splitting or fraying. It is maybe only slightly rougher than the regular 100% cotton I use. I'll definitely be buying more. Sustainable is the way to go!

Just what I was looking for. Excellent for weaving tea towels and many other things. Great choice of colours. I’m hooked!
