Looking for recycled cotton yarn that’s sturdy, sustainable and made for statement pieces?

 

Eco Bag is a worsted-weight (10ply) yarn made from 80% recycled cotton and 20% recycled polyester, designed for structured accessories, hard-wearing homewares and planet-friendly projects. With a chainette construction for strength and shape retention, this yarn brings both durability and softness to your stitches, making it ideal for bags, bucket hats and bold crochet creations.

 

Whether you’re searching where to buy recycled cotton yarn in Australia or just want yarn for crochet bags and homewares that holds its form and holds its own, Eco Bag delivers on strength, style and sustainability.

 

A Yarn with a Story

 

Crafted in Türkiye from 100% recycled materials, Eco Bag is certified to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and OEKO-TEX®, making it a mindful choice for eco-conscious makers. By transforming post-consumer textile waste into colourful, creative fibre, this yarn keeps materials out of landfill and gives them a brand-new purpose.

 

Its chainette structure (a tubular knit-like construction) gives it excellent stitch definition and reduces stretching over time, making it ideal for projects that need form, structure and a bit of grit. The self-striping and bold colourways make it especially fun to work with, adding energy to every stitch.

 

Why You’ll Love It

 

Eco Bag is built for projects that are meant to last with fibres that have already proven their durability. It’s soft enough to wear but structured enough to hold its shape beautifully, even with regular use.

 

You’ll love:

  • The sturdy recycled cotton and polyester blend for long-lasting results

  • The chainette construction that adds strength and reduces stretching

  • The bold colourways for stripes, colour blocking and eye-catching accessories

  • The GRS, OEKO-TEX and vegan certifications for peace-of-mind making

  • The substantial 150g skein, offering great value for larger projects

 

It’s everything you want in yarn for crochet bags or homewares, just with a cleaner footprint.
