A lovely affordable aran-weight yarn, this comes in solids and solids with fun pops of tweed! By it's nature, it's made of recycled sweaters so the fibre length is very short! Great for quick projects and ethically minded folks.

Why we like New Life:
An actual, honest to goodness, recycled yarn! "Made from old sweaters collected at recycling stations throughout Europe and shipped to the Hjertegarn factory in India where they are sorted by fibre and colour. The production of the yarn takes place under GRS-certified working conditions, including no forced labour and with a focus on health and safety. No dyes or chemicals are used in the manufacturing process."
With textile waste and fast-fashion being one of the biggest contributors to landfill- this is AMAZING. Kim fell in love with it the moment she saw it for the first time, and our customers keep falling in love over and over again. Plus, £5 a skein! Hard to go wrong!
