Silk Cloud Yarn

Silk Cloud Yarn by Darn Good Yarn is a wonderful addition to anyone's yarn collection. This anamika silk yarn is super soft and comes in a variety of vibrant colors. Plus, you're helping to reduce your carbon footprint with this yarn. Made in India, Silk Cloud yarn is fairly traded and made from silk waste. Each skein includes 600 yards of fingerling weight yarn, making this the perfect choice for all of your lightweight spring crochet designs.

Darn Good Yarn prides itself on providing you with fairly traded and child labor free yarns. Business decisions are based on these principles — all of their yarn is made from recycled and Earth friendly materials and much of it is created from the colorful remnants of the production of silk saris in Nepal and Northern India. These materials are handspun and dyed by women’s groups in Nepal. Darn Good Yarn provides these women with a marketplace for the products, as well as much needed wages for their families. Visit Darn Good Yarn's company profile for additional information.

The yarn comes packaged beautifully, wrapped in tissue paper with a post card describing the company and its mission statement.  It also includes a story of one of the women who work to make Darn Good Yarn.  All of the yarn from DGY is “made from recycled and Earth friendly materials and much of it is created from the colorful remnants of the production of silk saris in Nepal and Northern India.
