Meet your new favorite craft kit.

Five skeins of our best-selling Artisan Sari Silk Ribbon, bundled in rich jewel tones inspired by Bollywood glamour — think sapphire blues, ruby reds, emerald greens, and glowing gold. Each skein is hand-torn from 100% recycled sari silk, making every basket you create truly one-of-a-kind.

This kit includes everything you need to make two stunning baskets — a small nesting bowl and a larger handled storage basket — with two free crochet patterns included (a $10 value). Super bulky weight, works up fast on a size L/8mm+ hook.

What's in your kit:

  • 5 skeins Artisan Sari Silk Ribbon (50 yds / 100g each)
  • Ribbon Nesting Basket pattern — free
  • Bobble Gem Crochet Basket pattern — free
  • Completely unique colorway — no two packs alike

Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry. Hook size L/8mm+. Needle size US 11+.

Each purchase supports 600+ artisans in India and Nepal.

At first glance, this yarn looks like silky ribbon—but once you start working with it, it transforms into a super bulky, chunky art yarn full of movement and dimension 🎨.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

Is sari silk ribbon considered art yarn?

Yes! Its handmade construction, bold texture, and expressive color variations classify it as art yarn—perfect for makers who want fiber with personality 🎨.

Is this chunky or super bulky yarn?

Both. The ribbon structure creates a super bulky / chunky weight (Category 6) that works up quickly and adds strong visual texture.

Can I knit or crochet with this ribbon yarn?

Absolutely 🧶. It works best with larger needles and hooks (US 11+ / 8mm+) and is ideal for scarves, cowls, bags, and statement pieces.

What projects work best with sari silk ribbon yarn?

This yarn shines in knitting, crochet, weaving, jewelry making, rug hooking, and mixed-media art. It’s especially popular for baskets, wall hangings, purses, and boho décor.

Does this yarn stretch?

No. This is a non-elastic ribbon yarn made from woven silk. It drapes beautifully and holds its shape.

Is this yarn eco-friendly?

Yes 🌱. It’s made from 100% recycled sari silk and ethically produced by artisans who transform textile remnants into usable fiber.

How can I get consistent color in my project?

Because each batch is hand-dyed, ordering all the skeins you need at once will give you the most consistent color flow.
