Nepal Handspun Dyed Banana Silk Yarn - Avocado5 Skeins (100 grams each) - Limited Descriptions BANANA SILK?? What is that? Made from the leaves and stems of banana trees, it is a plant-based fiber that is similar in feel to viscose. Banana silk is thick and lustrous with an interesting texture. The fiber is refined, processed and skeined in Nepal by a women's cooperative; it is then hand-dyed and carefully made into each skein of vibrantly colored yarn. This beautiful yarn comes from a renewable, sustainable and environmentally-friendly source. This auction is for a bag of 5 hanks of high quality Banana Silk yarn. This hard to find hand-dyed silk is being offered for a very limited time. Each is a rich vibrant avocado green shade that may have slight color variations due to the dyeing process. Many stores sell this the type of yarn for up to $15 per skein. Each 100 gram skein has about 65 yards of fabulous hand-dyed silky yarn that can be used with, or substituted for, Recycled Sari Silk. Needle size: US 7 - 10.5 Cold water wash lay flat dry. Ship worldwide Free pattern for drop stitch scarf (see sample below) is also available (winning bidders should request them with their payment) 100% customer satisfaction guaranteed The pictures shown are from the limited supply that we have available, but may not be the EXACT ones that you will be receiving. When you purchase this yarn you are supporting women's development groups in Nepal who produce unique hand knitted products, spinning, knitting, and weaving in their spare time in their own homes. This work provides additional income to support their families and improve their lives. Women's cooperatives and cottage industries in Nepal import fibers to be handspun in gleaming silk skeins. Many of these women are Tibetan refugees or have been abandoned or widowed with families to support. Using their traditional skills they are able to create vibrant, textured yarn in a endless array of color ways. Create something beautiful and help support these women's efforts.
