Darn Good Yarn

Spent a small fortune to buy 5 skirts. They arrived with mouldy fabric, rips and pulls and the sewing was very poor. Sent emails with accompanying photos and got very poor responses. Only option is to pay to send them back which I really can not afford to do. And I do not trust them to actually refund even if I did. So end result, 5 poor quality skirts and I am hundreds of dollars out of pocket.
The premise of this company seems like a positive thing but in actuality quality control is poor and their responses poor too. I would not recommend that anyone purchase the recycled saris.

I LOVE my sari skirt! I put in the note that I liked teal and paisley and that is exactly what I got! I wore it out last weekend and got so many compliments! I came back and ordered 3 more! I can't wait to get them.

First thing you need to know is they "review" all of their reviews and remove negative ones to falsely raise their rating. Also, their customer service is awful—they talk down to their customers and have zero transparency about when items will ship. They'll get to it when they get to it. You might get it this week, it might be next year, and they don't care. You might get something ripped or damaged, and they don't care. They'll respond to a review like they do, but they really only care about taking customer's money.

I'm new to Darn Good Yarn. Not only am I happy knowing I'm helping support women working for their families in India. They hand spin and make the yarn from discarded sari material. So it's also helping save the planet by repurposing instead of filling a landfill somewhere.
I adore the yarns I've received. Omg! Beautiful handmade and interesting. I'm an artist. I use yarn in a lot of my projects such as weaving, crochet, macrame and basket weaving. And I'm sure I'll use it in other mediums as well.
Im not one to write reviews but I felt that this company deserves a shout out on many levels. I will continue my monthly subscription and try not to buy everything you have all at once lol.
Thanks for your time. Go look them up. You won't be disappointed. Deanna

I have purchased well over 100 skirts from DGY. I am passionate about repurposing sari materials and helping the planet while looking fabulous. In fact, I am known at my school for my very colorful and bling-y wardrobe. DGY helps me with all of those goals. In addition to great customer service, they are always finding ways to help their artisans and the planet in general. I also love their size inclusive wardrobe options. I've never been referred to as a goddess before!

What is not to love about DGY?

I ordered my skirts a month and a half ago and had no emails back after enquiring after them. I was very worried that I had thrown my money away... when suddenly they did get back, turns out my parcel was at the post office and when I unwrapped my parcel I was blown away with how gorgeous these skirts are. I'm totally I love with them and totally revoke my review that insinuated that this might be a scam. It's not. I'm so sorry that I ever doubted.

Definitely worth the price.

The yarn I got was honestly fine but they gave me the smallest tools of yarn even though I ordered 4 I still didn't have enough to make a blanket. I made this purchase on their website and paid through my Amazon account. Little did I know they created a whole 2nd account when I did that so I couldn't find my order to return it for a whole day. Then I went all over this website looking for away to return the yarn and there was no way I could return it. I went to the FAQ page was asked to sign in again and my sign in wasn't found. Still waiting for a response. Another email went to the email on the Amazon account. So as we're trying to return the items they won't return what I paid for $59.99 and they'll only return it for $51. This website is a scam

I've been buying from Darn Good Yarn since July and I'm obsessed! I buy mainly their recycled sari wrap skirts and fleece-lined wool socks. Each item is unique and handmade by artisans in Nepal and India, so not only do they provide supportive jobs for them, but they are helping to save the planet by keeping reusable fabric from going into the landfills! To add the icing to the cake, their customer service is incredible! I recently sent an email anxiously and impatiently awaiting my Skirt of the Month order, and Kate reassured me the same day that my skirts are being picked and they plan to maim out this week soon! They never make me fee bad for asking questions! And if there's something wrong with my order like damage, they make it right! Love this company!

Darn Good Yarn besides having unique affordable yarn and more has amazing friendly customer service that always goes above and beyond. All purchases from DGY goes to help women in need... I love companies that give back to communities and are not just out to make a buck. I like different yarns and this is my go to place. You won't regret it. Very helpful staff. A pic is below of a scarf I arm knitted using their chiffon ribbon yarn.

I love the sari silk ankle length skirts! The ones I recently got were beautiful in neutral colors. It is so much fun getting a surprise in the mail. There was an incredible sale and I bought 4 skirts for my four sisters and two for myself. I also have about 16 other skirts! I really like wearing them as skirts, dresses and cover ups. I would also really love it if they brought the short wrap around cotton skirts back. But best of all, these skirts around ethically and conscientiously created to fairly benefit the workers as well as the environment! Love it! Keep up the great work Darn Good Yarn!

I can not get over how amazing the DGY team is. On top of having great, top quality yarn, they also have a great customer service.
Always so prompt in responding to my emails and they definitely make me feel like I matter and that connection with another human being is what's important whether in a business or in life in general.

I simply love this company. I was drawn in by the fabulous skirts and developed a sari wrap skirt addiction. The fabrics are gorgeous and fun and each skirt is so unique. And then I started ordering the yarn. So beautiful and great quality. The staff has been super responding to my questions and delivery has been prompt and easy to track. I also really love their philosophy about supporting the culture from which they are sourced. Cannot say enough about how happy I am to have found them.
