Cotton Cord Dark Grey 5mm

Cotton Cord Dark Grey 5mm

This woven cotton cord in dark grey has a lovely sturdy structure that you'll notice straight away from the clear weave pattern. The colour is a deep charcoal grey tone, neutral enough to work with almost anything, but with enough character to stand on its own as an accent. The cord feels substantial without being stiff, and holds its shape well when you knot or braid it.

What is this material

This cord is made from cotton fibres woven tightly into a round, sturdy rope. The weaving technique creates a structure that doesn't fray easily, even when you cut through it. Cotton as the base material means the cord feels natural, takes dye well, and works pleasantly with needle and thread. It's flexible enough to knot, but keeps enough body to work as a functional element, like a drawstring or binding edge.
