We believe that yarn unfortunate enough to be born as a store bought sweater still deserves to be made into a hand made item!

Please check out our store for more yarn, stitch markers, and knitting accessories.

YARN DETAILS:
100% Wool
1, 2ply strand
13 Wraps per inch (DK, Light worsted weight)
4 skeins totaling 930 yrds (measured on a niddy noddy NOT BY WEIGHT!)
1lb 1oz/ 500g
Hand wash, Lay flat to dry
The color is Red Tweed. It is a deep primary red liberally sprinkled with Yellow, orange, blue and green tweedy bits.
There are NO KNOTS in this lot.  All joins are made with very strong, almost invisible felted joins.

In it's former life, this yarn was a Gently Used Ladies, The Limited cardigan, size L.

Love the yarn, love the color, but want a thicker weight? Simply hold several strands together!  I would be happy to wind your yarn into balls with as many strands held together as you like so that it is ready to go, or wind it just as it is. Just ask!

Preparation
I recycle all my yarn as if I were going to use it myself. Because of this, I have put far more time into it's processing than many ebay sellers do with their recycled yarn. Take advantage of my time and patience "rescuing" this wonderful yarn from it's former life.

Each skein has been gently unraveled, carefully measured using my yarn meter, hand washed, and straightened. Each skein comes with a ball band with fiber information and care instructions from the original sweater label, as well as knitting weight (fingering weight, sport, etc), wraps per inch, and length in yards. Whether you use the whole lot for one project or many, the yarn should never become "mystery yarn".

WHY RECYCLED YARN?
Recycling yarn from commercial sweaters allows me, and now YOU! To get to use the finest fibers for a very minimal price. It is a perfect solution for those of us who are on a very tight budget. Life is too short to work with anything but beautiful yarn.
