Why doesn't the yarn have a species name?

Our yarn comes from Italy and is produced for the fashion industry, it is due to overproduction, the big fashion houses order too large quantities of yarn which then end up in stock and stay there for days until it is finally thrown away. It is estimated that over a million tons of yarn end up as waste in the textile industry every year. Garnsalan is proud to take part in saving yarn from destruction and thereby taking part in environmental issues and waste of valuables.
