Artsy, slubby, silky soft, with a beautiful sheen that makes it fun: you will love banana fiber for open stitch cover ups over tanks for summer - for hats, bags, mats for the beach - the possibilities are endless!  The weight ranges from a DK to a Super bulky in every skein.  US Yarn weight #5. The drape is fairly firm and sturdy as a result. This is the most eco-wise fiber to be found.  After the banana harvest the leaves go to make paper, teas, and palapas. The trunk is soaked and the fiber is woven into this yarn.  It takes dye well so many of the colors are natural dyes resulting in bright colors and that hold fast.  Made by families and cooperatives in Nepal, your purchase helps maintain a lifestyle.  This is fair trade, all natural and good for the Earth.  Oh and the price is right!  Enjoy!
