Cuerda de Algodón y Macramé Natural

Construction and feel

Our cotton rope is a 3-strand twisted construction, available from 5 mm up to 16 mm. It feels firm and slightly stiff in the hand at first, but softens and becomes more flexible with use. The cord can be split apart with a Selma Split Needle when finer strands are needed for detailed macramé work.

Quality and care

Our cotton yarns meet the requirements of STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX, guaranteeing they're free from substances harmful to health and the environment. Cotton rope is washable and easy to clean, but keep in mind it will not float and can absorb up to 30% of its weight in water, so it's not the best choice for projects that need to stay dry or buoyant.

Try a project yourself

New to macramé? Our macramé keychain tutorial uses just 3 mm cotton rope and four simple knots to make a finished pendant, a great first project before moving on to larger wall hangings. Fasten your work to a wooden jig to keep tension even while you knot.
