Question from antg

Can you tell me if there is any safe yarn {and stuffing} for knitted children’s garments

and toys?

Debra’s Answer

There are many safe organic natural fiber yarns. Some of them are listed at DEBRA’S LIST: Yarns but you can also search online for “organic yarn,” “cotton yarn,” etc.

You can use organic cotton or wool batting for stuffing material.

It’s important to use organic natural fiber yarns and stuffing because pesticide residues are NOT removed during processing, as they are when fiber is processed into fabric.
