Dungarees is a beautiful yarn with a beautiful story. The modern fashion industry generates an incredible amount of waste between garments that have never been sold and garments that people discard. Jeans that would otherwise be headed to the landfill are disassembled and shredded to create the fiber for this yarn! The colors are muted and wonderful, reminiscent of well-loved clothes. Use it for everything from home goods like mesh shopping bags and summer throw blankets to garments like sun hats and swimsuit coverups.
