Polka Dot ribbons could essentially have polka dots on fabrics cut to ribbons or hand-painted on the ribbons to give a bold, rustic effect.
These beautiful fibres are made from repurposed sari scraps, sewn and knotted together by women's collectives in India. The ends of sari garments, which would otherwise be wasted, are recuperated, cut, and connected to create one continuous skein of silk ribbon.

The colouring of these polka dot printed recycled ribbons ranges from a bright white, to cream, to light tan.
A bold print, unique textural elements, raw edges, and non-uniformcolours with surprising pops give these ribbons aesthetic complexity and make them perfect fibres for many different artistic applications:
-bags
-rugs
-weaving
-tassel making
-floral arranging
-giftwrapping
-macrame
-dreamcatchers
-jewelry making

Each skein is approximately 100g in weight and contains around 150 feet of ribbon. The width of the ribbon is around 1”

The purpose and demand of this fiber is in its non-uniformity. Each skein, and each segment of the ribbon within the skein is slightly diverse— but all are similarly as beautiful!
