Recycled Sari Ribbon is handmade and designed specially keeping the color needs of a project in mind.

Each colorway of this yarn has its own story. Don’t forget to read about the inspiration behind the interesting colorways.

This handmade beautiful yarn is recycled from polyester Indian sarees.

I used stripes of different colored ribbons in a systematic manner starting with a specific unique color & ending with another unique color.

When you buy 1 quantity of yarn, you will get continuous yarn which will have 1 strip of each color as shown in the picture of the crocheted swatch.

I meticulously cut these strips with my own hands from long saris one at a time.

These sari ribbons are then machine sewn using a zig-zag stitch with white thread. It took me a lot of time to make it, but I love to know that I made my own yarn & now you will be able to use this handmade creation to make something beautiful.

I have kept the edges of this yarn raw or unfinished intentionally to give it an organic look. I feel it adds a certain mystic & give a wild touch to this art yarn. It gives me a happy feeling just looking at these yarns. I hope you do too.
