Our line of Naturally Colored American Maid™ yarns come in  Dark and Light Brown, Dark and Light Green, Natural White and Bleached White. The brown and green colored cotton yarns becomes darker when washed, especially in alkaline water.  Just add baking soda to the warm wash water and watch the color deepen.  The first wash water is often pretty dirty because when you wash it, it is the yarn’s first bath!  You are washing off the dirt from the fields as well as any oils or dirt from the processing.

All but the 20/2 yarns are 100% American Made yarns.  We purchase the cotton lint from the cotton growers and then tend the fiber all the way through it’s processing into yarn.  Each year we make purchasing choices to make our yarns as sustainable as we can.  See our sustainable story here.

*At this time, we only have the 20/2 yarns available in imported cotton.

We have the American Maid naturally colored yarns available in 3/2, 8/2 and 10/2.  3/2 makes wonderful bath towels, snuggly blankets or delicious placemats, with 1260 yards per pound cone.  8/2 and the slightly finer 10/2 are go to sizes for baby wraps, handtowels and lightweight blankets.  3,360 yards per pound for 8/2 and 4,200 yards per pound for 10/2.
