Darn Good Yarn

Darn Good Yarn Creating With Purpose since 2008 💜
Sustainable Fashion & Craft Supplies from Reclaimed Materials. Our story begins with the sari. That’s where we come in.

Over thousands of years, this traditional Indian garment has evolved from a simple throw to a beautiful, vibrantly dyed and intricately patterned dress, shawl and scarf. Today, the dyers and spinners and weavers of silk yarn have all been replaced by machines and factories, which pump out thousands of saris a day and rely on low-paid labor and plenty of waste. There are, nonetheless, some who are

working to preserve the ancient arts of spinning and knitting sari silk yarn. Women’s cooperatives, set up in India and Nepal, are reclaiming the offcuts and discards from these factories and using them to spin sari silk yarn. Hobbyists and knitters the world over are rediscovering this high-quality traditional fiber. Our online yarn store is dedicated to supporting women’s economic empowerment, fair trade practices, and principles of environmental sustainability. Our yarn store offers dozens of other fibers, cloths and wholesale yarn through our online yarn store, allowing knitters access to these rare and special items. In doing so, we hope to encourage the joy of knitting, beautiful garments, and ethical consumerism. Check out our yarn store online and grab yourself some of our gorgeous wholesale yarn. Don’t forget to download some of our free patterns, or pick up some of our pre-made garments handmade by artisans from around the world. Most of all, remember to smile – when you shop with Darn Good Yarn, you’re helping to make the world a better place!

🪷Inspired by the lush beauty of early summer blooms, Peony captures the soft elegance and vibrant energy of a garden in full bloom. This handspun worsted weight yarn features dreamy shades of coral and cream blended throughout reclaimed sari silk fibers, creating rich texture, gentle movement, and one-of-a-kind color variation in every skein. 🧶

Sooooooo in short - our Peacock Wrap Skirts are $40 off again for a limited time 💜🤏🏼 Use code CAPTSAM40

If you want to know why; it is not only because we 🫶🏼 you all and want to share a symphony of color with you, it is partly because while I MEAN well, I don’t always get around to doing the content that I endeavor to do…it is sort of an inside joke here at DGY. 🥰🤣
However - when I opened up our new Peacock Wrap Skirt I was too excited to not run outside and get some videos done immediately!
I told Nicole that we pretty please have to put it back on sale so that I have a great reason to post all these videos for you 🥳💜
The wrap skirt style you love, the colors you can pair with anything - comes home to you for $40 off again!

Grab yours before they’re gone ☀️😍
PS - I swear to actually complete content more often…🤣
