Queensland Myrtle 100% Lyocell yarn

$11.00

Despite being so strong and resistant, this fiber is simultaneously soft to the touch and light. It has excellent temperature regulation properties, as well as moisture absorption qualities. Its breathability, on the other hand, creates an antibacterial effect that results in a perfect fabric for people with skin sensitivity or prompt to irritation.

That environmental friendliness is far from "lip-service".  Lyocell is worldwide known for being a sustainable material, not just because it has roots in a natural source (that is wood cellulose), but also because it has an eco-friendly production process. The manufacturing process of Lyocell is shorter and more efficient than other fibers like rayon, for example. Its production process uses 20% less water than the production of cotton and less energy too. In addition, it's a perfect material to dye thanks to its high absorption properties, just like regular cotton. In fact, the spinning process necessary to make Lyocell recycles 99.5% of the solvent involved in this circuit, which means very little chemicals are left to waste. That's what is called a “closed loop” process.
