Our beautiful Raw Banana yarn in sunshine colours is eco friendly with a wonderfully rustic texture that lends itself perfectly to baskets, plant hangers, bags, mats, gift wrapping and even around the house and garden.
Completely natural Banana yarn is easy on the hands and soft enough to weave, macrame, knit or crochet with.
Banana yarn is a bast fibre made from the non-fruit bearing species of the banana plant (Musus Textillis) and is a very strong and incredibly durable fibre. This natural vegan yarn is made from the stem of the banana tree with the stem cut into chunks before the fibre is extracted. After sun drying for several days the fibre is then hand spun to create the finished yarn.
