Recycled cotton yarn is created by repurposing pre-consumer or post-consumer cotton waste, like fabric scraps from factories or old textiles, into new yarn, reducing landfill waste and water use compared to virgin cotton. The process typically involves shredding the cotton into fibers, blending it with other materials if needed for strength, spinning it into yarn, and dyeing it sustainably. This makes it an eco-friendly choice for crafters who value sustainability without sacrificing quality.

Yes, our recycled cotton yarn works beautifully for macramé, crochet and knitting, offering great texture, durability, and stitch definition. For macramé, choose thicker cords (e.g., 4-6mm) for knots and structure; for crochet or knitting, opt for finer threads like 1.5mm for garments and accessories. Always check the yarn label for recommended hook/needle sizes.

Hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent, then lay flat to dry to maintain shape and color vibrancy, avoid machine washing or drying to prevent felting or shrinkage. It's highly durable for everyday use but may soften more with washes; for longevity, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Recycled cotton yarn is more sustainable, using upcycled waste to save water, energy, and reduce textile landfill contributions compared to virgin cotton. It offers a soft, matte texture ideal for crafts.
