Second Cashmere: Reclaimed Cashmere Mending Yarns

Unraveled from post-consumer cashmere waste

A zero-waste luxury mending solution. Second Cashmere's reclaimed cashmere yarn is unraveled by hand from discarded pure cashmere garments sourced from textile recyclers.

They unpick garments and unravel the yarn course-by-course, stripping each piece back to basics to create long lengths of beautiful, 100% reclaimed cashmere yarn.

This cashmere mending yarn is a nod to the different ways our wardrobes can become zero waste and how, with a bit of innovative thinking, we can transform textile waste into a valuable and creative resource. Each spool is made from recycled and recyclable card
and is a stand alone object in any repair kit or sewing box.

Specifications:
• 10 metres
• Approximately 2/28nm
• 2-ply yarn
• Made from 100% pure reclaimed post consumer, cashmere fibre

Second Cashmere creates considered collections of secondhand and recycled cashmere that are restored and manufactured in Scotland.

We repair, restore, rework, and unravel cashmere garments, sourced from textile recyclers, to create well designed and well-made collections for homes and wardrobes. Our ethos centres on circularity, interrupting the waste system to give new purpose to discarded pure cashmere garments.

We carry collections of Reclaimed Cashmere Mending Yarns, secondhand restored cashmere knitwear and recycled cashmere accessories.
