GOTS-certified yarn

Q: What does it mean for a yarn to be GOTS-certified?

The GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification guarantees that the yarn comes from organic fibres grown without pesticides or chemicals, and that the entire production process — from cultivation to spinning, dyeing and packaging — meets strict environmental and social standards. This ensures not only an eco-friendly product, but also an ethical and sustainable one.

Q: What are the benefits of using GOTS-certified yarns?

Choosing GOTS-certified yarns has multiple benefits: 🌍 Environmentally friendly, thanks to chemical-free and sustainable processes. 👶 Safe for sensitive skin, including babies and people with allergies. 🔝 Superior quality, with strong, durable and soft fibres. ♻️ Full traceability, with guaranteed ethical practices throughout the production chain.

Q: Are these yarns suitable for knitting baby garments?

Absolutely. All yarns in this category, such as Scheepjes Organicon, Gazzal Organic Baby Cotton or BC Garn Bio Balance, are GOTS-certified and completely safe for babies and children, free from harmful substances and perfectly soft for sensitive skin.

Q: Are these yarns as durable as conventional yarns?

Yes. GOTS-certified yarns are as durable, or even more durable, than conventional yarns. In addition to being eco-friendly, they offer high quality, good twist, excellent performance in knitting or crochet, and wear resistance.

Q: Can GOTS-certified yarns be machine washed?

Many of these yarns can be machine washed on a delicate cycle with cold water, especially cottons such as Scheepjes Organicon or Gazzal Organic Baby Cotton. However, to prolong the life of the garments, hand washing and flat drying is recommended. In all cases, check the manufacturer’s label.

Q: What can I knit or crochet with GOTS-certified yarns?

With these yarns you can knit or crochet any project, combining sustainability and quality: 👶 Garments for babies, children and adults. 🧣 Jumpers, shawls, hats, scarves and blankets. 🧸 Amigurumi, knitted toys and sustainable accessories. 🏡 Home décor: cushions, wall hangings, covers, etc.
