Dungarees yarn is made from recycled jeans! How cool is that? This cotton blend has a tweedy appearance. Made in Italy, this soft yarn knits up into sweaters as comfortable as your favorite old jeans. Meets Recycled Blended Claim Standard..
Used jeans are cut to remove zippers, buttons and grommets. The jeans are fed into a machine which reduces them to fibers, which are then baled for spinning. The “fleece” is spun and the denim fibers are mixed with recycled cotton fibers.
The resulting soft cotton yarn feels good in more ways than one!
