What is this material

This cord is made from cotton fibres braided flat, with no core inside. That makes it supple and lightweight, while staying sturdy enough to hold its shape. Cotton breathes well and feels soft against skin, which makes this cord a solid pick for garments worn directly on the body. The melange grey tone comes from mixing different yarn colours during the braiding process, so each length of cord has its own subtle colour play.

Uses and projects

This flat cord suits plenty of sewing projects where you're after a natural, sturdy look. Think of:

• Drawcord for hoodies and sweatvests
• Closure cord for joggers and shorts
• Decorative trim along pockets and necklines
• Lacing cord for bags and backpacks
• Finishing touch for cushions and home textiles
• Cord for espadrilles or other shoe projects
• Adjustable ties on children's clothing
• Decorative ribbon for gift wrapping or labels
