Bamboo armwarmes - Eco friendly

I maded armwarmers for the summer! In the heat, bamboo is naturally cool to the touch, but it's also very warm in cold weather. Bamboo yarn gives a soft texture and a fluid drape.
But why bamboo is eco friendly? Here are some reasons:
-Bamboo is 100% naturally grown, without assistance for man.
-As the fastest growing plant in the world, bamboo grows to its maximum height in about 3 months and reaches maturity in 3-4 years. It spreads rapidly across large areas. Because of this, bamboo is known to improve soil quality in degraded and eroded areas of land.
-Bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilizers.
-Bamboo fibers is 100% biodegradable.

So, my "eco-armwarmers" are perfect for summer evening and to add a natural look to all your outfits. It is also a wonderful gift for someone you love...
They measures approx. 9 inches long. Maximum stretch: 4 1/2 inches flat in width. Hand-finished side seam. Horizontal thumb opening.

Easy care! Wash by hand or machine gentle cycle and dry flat.

Five solid colors available: Beige, Navy, Grey, Yellow and Natural. I also have some that are knitted using two different colors threads to create a pretty marbled effect. Four ombres colors available:Natural,-Beige, Gold-Beige, Bronze-Beige and Natural-Navy. I have many ready to ship in my etsy shop or i can made to order.

Last week I introduced three new colors: Black, Black and beige and Black and grey. Keep an eye on my knitting etsy shop: mayapar.etsy.com or be a fan of my facebook page here.

Bamboo shawl

Bamboo fabric is a natural textile made from the pulp of the bamboo grass. Bamboo fabric has been growing in popularity because it has many unique properties and is more sustainable than most textile fibers. Bamboo fabric is light and strong, has excellent wicking properties, and is to some extent antibacterial.
The bamboo plant is very quick growing and does not usually require the use of pesticides and herbicides to thrive. As a result, plantations can easily be kept organic and replanted yearly to replenish stocks. The process of making unbleached bamboo fiber is very light on chemicals that could potentially harm the environment.
Bamboo is highly water absorbent, it will pull moisture away from the skin so that it can evaporate. For this reason, clothing made of bamboo fiber is often worn next to the skin.
Bamboo also has many antibacterial qualities, which bamboo fabric is apparently able to retain, even through multiple washings. This helps to reduce bacteria that thrive on clothing and cause unpleasant odors. It can also kill odor causing bacteria that live on human skin, making the wearer and his or her clothing smell more sweet. In addition, bamboo fabric has insulating properties and will keep the wearer cooler in summer and warmer in winter.

So i made shawl for the summer... They are knitted with a 100% bamboo yarn. These shawls are supple and light. It is ideal for evenings summer and to give a natural look to all your dresses. It's a wonderful gift for someone you love...

This shawl is approximately 65 1/2 inches in lenght (without fringes) and 13 1/2 inches in width. Fringes measures 5 1/2"
Price: 60$CAN (48$USD)

Care: Handwash cold, dry flat.

My currrent color selection is: Marine - Natural - Grey - Brown and Yellow. Please note that colors vary depending on your computer and color settings.
