Macramé Cord: Cotton

Cotton is easy to deal with and so flexible, it can be used for almost any plant. It's simple on the neck, gentle to the touch, and it comes in several sizes and textures. Cotton fibers are shorter in size than linen or jute and need further bending to allow them to hold together to create a chain. In most of the sewing and fabric stores, you can buy cotton cording and weaving suppliers. The ply cotton that is single is also used for the Macramé designs you'll carry, like a shirt. Cording of cotton consists of wide size varieties and is also seen in several designs of Macramé.

An important consideration in choosing the cord

Whether the completed object should be used is an essential factor when selecting the form of the cord for the project? Is it going to be indoors, like a hanger of plants? You’d like something that's fade-proof. You’re going to find cord smooth to the eye. Will it hang on to its shape? There are only a handful of things to remember.

And what type do you use a Macramé cord for your projects? It depends on what you want to produce; a plant hanger for Macramé? Hanging on a wall? Macramé Jewelry? What about anything lavish like a backdrop in Macramé? Once you learn what type of Macramé cord to use, there are several deciding criteria that you need to settle about.

Cotton is the perfect string for beginners, 12 mm 3-ply (for your large-scale or heavy projects) and 3 mm 2-ply (this rope fits better for smaller, smoother and more fragile projects).

Jute is a strong, natural fiber of lovely grain and color. It is rough and scratchy, but it is a strong practical fiber that looks perfectly knotted.

Felted wool is a nice, soft and voluminous statement fiber. Using it to create a lush and elegant pillow, or give some wooly decoration to a hanging rope board.

Polypropylene is a long-lasting, strong rope and will perform up in the weather making it a popular option for outdoor projects.
