PLEASE NOTE! This product is being discontinued and we are clearing out the stock. Get yours before it's too late!
You’ve seen them before! The pretty summer hats and beach bags that instantly get you in a sunny, sandy, vacation mood. The incredible accessories made from raffia that make their way back to the city and beach every summer (even though we firmly believe that a beautiful raffia bag can be worn all year!).
We love the look so much that we just had to have our very own raffia yarn. May we present: Rafaella!
Rafaella is made from 100% raffia paper (raffia is originally made from palms), is durable, and recyclable.
Small tip: Rafaela can also be used as ribbon when you wrap presents. A more sustainable and prettier alternative to the classic plastic ribbons.

I find this yarn a bit tough to crochet and used a bigger hook than recommended. But I do like the fact that it is stiff enough to stand up when making a beach bag! Other raffias I’ve used are easier to work with but the resulting bag is floppy
Debbie
This is my second project. I liked working with it this time much better. The roll looks small, but goes on forever. Very sad they are discontinuing it
Heidi
I like how compact they were able to get it on there and I love the bright colors! Perfect for summer items! I'm planning a hat, a rug, and a purse!
Debbie
Love working with the raffia. Make for a great purse. It is stiff, but not to hard to work with
Elisa
It's great for a paper raffia yarn but I had a hard time crocheting with it. It took me a while to finish my project because this yarn is quite stiff for my liking. The result of my project was pretty good though.
