What is this cotton yarn and when do you use it?

This cotton yarn from folia is intended for handicraft techniques such as knitting, crocheting and decorative work. You reach for this yarn when you want to make a project that needs to be sturdy and where you are relying on a natural material. The spool contains 50 grams of yarn with a length of 150 metres, which gives you a good amount for smaller to medium-sized projects.

Why this size and this variant?

The colour chamois is a warm, understated beige tone that combines well with other colours and looks neutral in decorative applications. At 50 grams per ball, this is a manageable size that you can easily use up within one project or supplement with multiple balls for larger pieces. Because the yarn is made entirely of 100% cotton, it is pleasant to work with and suitable if you prefer a plant-based fibre over wool.

The strength of this yarn

The structure code 32/2x8 indicates that the yarn is multi-ply twisted, which makes it particularly stable. Thanks to this high tensile strength, the yarn stays intact with tight stitches and intensive use, such as with crocheted toys, bags or decorative cords. This also makes it suitable for projects where the yarn is subjected to some stress.

Practical tip for use

Before you begin, check which needle size suits the yarn weight 32/2x8 and match this to the pattern you are using. After use, it is best to store the yarn in a dry place and wind it back into a neat ball or use a yarn winder, so that it does not tangle or get dirty before your next project.
