Darn Good Yarn Recycled Sari Silk Ribbon Yarn – Handmade Dyeable Jewel Tone Multicolor 100g 50 Yards for Knitting Crochet Weaving – Tibet Jewels

Beautiful colors and excellent quality! Easy to unfold. Colorful strands are sewn together which is nice especially for gift wrapping. Already purchased a second skein. Don’t hesitate to purchase, you won’t be disappointed!

I've gotten this twice, now. I NEED MORE!! First of all, I LOVE sari material! ESPECIALLY the silk!! I LOVE that it's reclaimed! I LOVE the colors!!! As long as you understand that the strips are only lightly tacked end to end, you'll be fine. Just be a little careful. HOWEVER! Once it's knitted or crocheted, it's extremely strong! So far, I've made 2 plant hangers. I did a single crochet and wrapped a ceramic pot and wove in the hanger with the same "rope". That's what's in the photo. I made it for my mom and she absolutely loves it. Yes, she legit loves it. I can tell when she fake loves something after 48 years. 😂 Anyway! I got the 2nd skein to make another version and I love it! I'm keeping that one. The patterns and colors are so incredible, I actually took pictures to blow up and put on the wall! I love texture photos. It's expensive but, I know how much silk costs so, it's totally reasonable.

I wasn’t expecting this yarn to be so gorgeous. Thin strips of recycled sari fabric sewn into a long strip of yarn. As the saris are cut, the little threads create a gorgeous variety of colors. Thick and thin, all colors, fluffy and smooth. Just amazing! Oh, and the quantity is generous. It arrives wound into a tight twist, very fun to unravel and roll it into a useful ball. Can’t wait to weave something!

The yarn is beautiful. It is excatly what I expected. Rough sliced strings. The color is fairly close to picture as well. Mine is taken through day light. As you can see compaired to the pen there is a good length to it as well. It comes tied into a loop nice and tidy before i messed it up. Ha. So, after a good 20mins of sorting and rolling, i have three balls of yarn! They are definitely very, very rough cut. And i believe part of them were defected. As in rougher than other parts. But personally i feel that gives the yarn more structure. It can feel rough but i like the rawness of it. I do have one full ball of perfect silk though.

I bought this skein of recycle sari silk to use for plant dyeing. I often use them to test colors after I cut them in small strips. I have also dyed them and crafted with them... A lot of irregularity but that is part of the fun. They are also sewn together in segments to make a long ball of silk 'yarn' -- but that doesn't bother me as I am using strips anyway. They are about 2' in length -- each strip that is sewn together. Here is a picture of silk that I dyed with Mexican marigolds -- so brilliant!

Used 2 hanks and a 9mm crochet hook to make a basket/bowl that I use to grab herbs from my patio. Not the easiest to work with but worth the effort once the project is complete. Very stiff and sturdy.

I’ve rarely been so excited for a delivery, followed by hours of annoyance just to make the product somewhat useful. I wanted to love this ribbon, and I suppose I still do, but only after a huge effort of knotted strings and tangled rats nests and tying ribbon back together. At the eventual completion of re-rolling the whole thing, there were three pieces that were so thin and fragile that they shouldn’t even have been used. I do love the bright colors. Would have liked having a few patterned pieces included but I think I’ve made it useful in the end. There was a lot I had to throw away but what is left really is quite beautiful. I doubt that I will be a return customer but will definitely pay more attention to bad reviews in the future. So if you have a few hours to kill, and maybe have half of what you start with when you are done cleaning up their mess, go ahead and buy this beautiful ribbon.

There are no words to describe how stunning these jewels are. I can’t take my eyes off of them, I’ll never be able to craft with them, they are so beautiful.

I loved the rustic distressed look. I am a textile artist and love to dye wool and silk for my projects. The sample is supposed to look jet black, so I suspected it was not silk when the dye would not absorb to dark black, as you can see in the photo. I received good customer service for a refund, although not so good when I see the product description has not been changed at this point in time.

Beautiful. Just what I needed. As expected
