Our Considered Fibres: Leftover Cotton Yarn
Originally deriving from the cotton plant, when it comes to leftover cotton yarn — it’s all in the name.
The Fibre
Leftover cotton yarn is cotton that has gone through the spinning process but has not yet been crafted into a fabric. A solution that diverts waste, leftover yarns from the production of other textiles are collected and eventually fashioned into a new product.
The Process
Collect: Suppliers collect cotton yarn leftover from production of other textile products
Repurpose: Yarns are crafted into fabric, which could include a knit or weave
Construction: Whether through pattern or process, the fabric is crafted into a product
Finished: Last elements are added — embroidery, embellishment, hemming — and product is completed
The Feel
Just like how cotton boasts a variety of feels, so does leftover cotton — it’s all dependent on construction.
