Cotton braid

- The combed cotton is often used in the production of feathers and leaves macramé because as its name indicates, it is the one that combs more easily but it is very well suited to any other type of realization, its rendering is quite soft.

- The twisted cotton can also be combed but a little more difficult and will have a slightly wavy rendering, unlike the combed cotton which will be smooth. And it too can be used in many achievements.

- The braided cotton can be used for many achievements including suspensions for plants because it is very pleasant to work when you have to make knots.

For outdoor macramé creations, discover our Braided synthetic yarn. Available in pretty colors musk this synthetic rope will remain intact outdoors! The Polyester braided rope - Parallel core is also treated anti-UV and totally imputrescible.

Outdoors but under cover, you can use twisted cotton rope. Cotton is resistant to moisture when it dries, otherwise the spots of mold may appear.

Otherwise, the jute twine is very pretty and resistant to moisture.

To smooth the feathers and leaves in macramé, we advise you to use a macramé brush and/ or fine comb to have an impeccable rendering.

After roughly cutting the edges of your leaf or pen, place it on a flat surface (if possible you protect a minimum) to brush the cords.

Do not be afraid to brush a little hard, you will need several passes and patience to get a soft and beautiful look.

You can soak it in water and gently clean it with Marseille soap. Once washed, dry your creation flat!

For dust, it is good to pass the special textile transparent waterproof... It makes it easier to dust them (with a brush or vacuum) and prevents stains from sticking.

Natural ropes are used in various areas such as decoration, macramé, crochet, crafts, furniture, events, adventure parks, security, industry and agriculture.

Many natural fibres are used to make rope:

The strongest material is hemp. The most used materials in decoration are cotton and jute.

Natural rope can be used outdoors but it is not recommended to store your natural rope in the sun and weather permanently. It will degrade in the long run and may even eventually break.

Like any natural material, the natural rope is sensitive to weather, moisture and UV rays.

The softest natural rope is cotton rope. If you are looking for sweetness, you will also find it with the hemp rope.

In general, all natural ropes are soft. The only rough and grainy fibre is sisal.
