Description
This special pair of baby slippers are made from a blend of banana yarn (hand spun from the fibres contained in the bark of the banana tree) and recycled sari silk.
<br />
<br />Often described as vegan silk, banana yarn has a gorgeous silky sheen and feels satisfyingly 'heavy' to touch. It comes from a renewable, sustainable and environmentally friendly source. This yarn is spun with sari silk in shades of pink, peach and red with occasional flecks of blue, green and black.
<br />
<br />These slippers measure approximately 12.5cm in length, with a strong double layer sole. The outer sole is made from cotton and the inner from 100% wool.
<br />
<br />I think these unusual slippers would be perfect for a special occasion such as a Christening or maybe for a little flower girl at a wedding.
<br />
<br />I usually finish the soles of my slippers with a non-slip coating, however this does tend to make them slightly yellowish. I have not done this to these slippers because of this, however I will happily add it if you wish at no extra cost.
