Have you ever wondered where your wool sweater really comes from? Or thought about the journey of that cozy scarf you love wearing in winter? Let's talk about something important that often goes unnoticed in our daily lives.

Animal cruelty is when animals are harmed, hurt, or treated badly for human use. This can mean many things:

• Physical harm or pain caused to animals

• Keeping animals in small, uncomfortable spaces 

• Not giving them proper food, water, or care 
• Treating them like objects instead of living beings who can feel pain and fear

In the fashion and textile industry, millions of animals face cruelty every single day just so we can have wool, leather, silk, and other products.

Most people think getting wool is harmless. We imagine happy sheep getting a haircut on a peaceful farm. But the reality is very different.

• Many sheep are kept in crowded, dirty areas and don’t get proper care when sick or hurt.
•  Shearing is rushed, and sheep are handled roughly, leading to cuts and injuries.
• Lambs have their tails cut off, usually with no pain medicine.
• Sheep get older and make less wool, so they are often sent to slaughter because they are no longer profitable.

When we say compassion in every stitch, we mean something special. Every single loop of yarn, every knot, every row of a hand-knit product represents a choice.

• A choice to be kind. 

• A choice not to harm. 

• A choice to create beauty without causing pain.

Traditional woolen products mean every stitch came from an animal that might have suffered. But cruelty-free products mean every stitch was made with care, compassion, and respect for all living beings.

This is where Yes Helping Hand comes into the story.

We believe that beautiful, cozy products should never come at the cost of animal suffering. That's why every single item we create is 100% cruelty-free and hand-knitted with love.

We started small, with a few artisans and a strong commitment to compassion. Today, we work with talented craftspeople who create each piece by hand, stitch by stitch, with care and attention.

Every product that leaves our workshop carries a promise that no animal was harmed in making it.

You might wonder why we use traditional methods when machines could do it faster.

Here's the beautiful difference:

Our Cashmere is handloom-woven: Every piece of our cashmere fabric is woven on traditional handlooms.. The weaver sits at the loom, carefully interlacing each thread by hand, creating fabric that has character and soul. Handloom cashmere is softer, more breathable, and has a texture that machines simply cannot replicate.

Our Wool is Hand-Knitted: Each woolen item is created stitch by stitch using knitting needles and skilled hands. Our artisans spend hours knitting every sweater, glove, and hat. Hand-knitted wool products are more elastic, fit better, and last much longer than machine-knitted alternatives.

Why This Matters:

Superior Quality: Handcrafted items are stronger and last longer than machine-made products. Each stitch and weave is secure and carefully placed.

True Uniqueness: No two handcrafted pieces are exactly the same. Your item carries the individual touch of the artisan who made it.

Supporting Artisans: Traditional handloom weaving and hand-knitting provide meaningful work to skilled craftspeople, especially women in our community who have learned these crafts from their mothers.

→ MEET OUR ARTISANS

Attention to Detail: Human hands catch and fix small issues that machines would miss. Every piece is checked multiple times during creation. Learn about the cashmere-making process.

Preserving Heritage: By using traditional methods, we keep ancient crafts alive for future generations.

Love in Every Thread: There's something special about wearing something made by human hands with care and intention. You can feel the difference.
