Our Yarns
Every yarn we select is chosen for exceptional comfort, complete biodegradability, and adherence to rigorous social and environmental standards. All meet OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 requirements.
All Fruitchouli knitwear is 100% plastic-free, with no hidden synthetic elastic.
Each Fruitchouli piece is designed for lasting wear and, at the end of its long life, will naturally return to the earth without synthetic waste.
100% Yak
Our yak wool is sourced directly from Tibetan communities, and meets the global yak wool standard. This internationally recognised standard was launched in 2025 and focuses on animal welfare and transparent sourcing.
Two of our yak colours, Natural Brown and Natural Taupe, are undyed, highlighting the fibre’s natural colour. The yarn is sorted by hand, and as a result, slight colour variations may occur depending on the year, region and weather.
Yak wool is a more sustainable alternative to sheep wool and cashmere, as they emit less methane and graze more gently. Our supplier has supported over 4000 Tibetan families, working directly with local communities to train their young leaders on best practice animal welfare and fibre quality assurance processes.
