Environmentally friendly ba yarn!? 🧶
Yes, actually! Some yarn are environmentally friendly! Which means, yes
❤️🩹 CREATING YOUR OWN CLOTHES! ❤️
Is a great alternative to fast fashion.
Creating your own clothes can come in many different ways, and one of our favorites is
💥CROCHETING 💥
A lot of sustainable yarn are made from
☁️ ORGANIC COTTON
🎍 BAMBOO
🌱 H**P OR FLAX PLANT FIBERS
🍌 BANANA OR CORN HUSKS FIBERS
And each process using these requires only little water and reduces the use of synthetic materials.
We even have WOOL AND ALPACA YARN! From the fleece of sheep, goats, and alpacas! 🐑🐐🦙
And with fast fashion usually involving unethical labor practices— long hours, low wages— making your own clothes can give you assurance that it was made in an ethical manner.
🩷 Crazy Touch by Chesca 🩷, a crochet shop run by 14-year-old Chesca, also shows the personalization that comes with crocheting your own clothes. Chesca’s work illustrates to us the beauty of fashion that is uniquely yours and made with time, effort, & love. Two projects below are of patterns she had tested! These crocheted pieces will be with her for a long time because of their high quality and longevity, which means lowering the need to frequently replace your clothes and throw out old ones! 🌸
