This air-blown yarn is made by recycling leftover bits from milling other yarns.

The recycled polyamide core isn't made using any virgin materials, but you wouldn't know the difference!

All large and small amounts of fiber that were previously thrown away are now collected together. For example, the machines are cleaned of fibre between each spinning, lost bits etc., everything is collected and sorted according to quality and colours.

These bits are then mixed into the final yarn. If you look carefully at the yarn, you will be able to find traces of many fine colours. Each of the 3 colourways consists of colour mixtures that coordinate.
