Our upcycled knitting / sewing bag is as charming as it is practical. It makes the perfect gift for friends or family who love crafting and care about sustainability, or a delightful companion for your own creative projects. Not only is it versatile and stylish, but it’s also a more eco-friendly choice compared to most hobby bags. That's because we craft all of our home textile products by upcycling waste from laundry houses in Denmark. Upcycling is the most responsible way to handle discarded textiles, offering a more environmentally friendly option than recycling.

What is upcycling?
What is upcycling?
Upcycling means that we reuse the parts of the discarded garments that are still in good condition, instead of mechanically or chemically recycling them into new yarn. We manually sort through each item by hand to find the reusable pieces we can upcycle into items such as washcloths, dishcloths, tea towels, cushion covers, foot stools and toiletry bags, amongst other things.
We cut out what is reusable and sew it back together into new home textiles. This is the most environmentally friendly way to handle the waste because very little energy and water is required, in comparison with a recycled product, where the material has to be broken down and often mixed with polyester in order to bind the shorter fibres.
The desire to save as much waste textiles as possible from being burnt up into smoke was how the idea for Amolia came about, so sustainability has been at the heart of what we do from day one. Read more about all the ways we try to be as sustainable as we possibly can.
