Macrame Rope: What is the difference between three-strand cotton rope and cored yarn?
1. The difference in appearance:
Three-strand cotton rope: The delicate yarn is divided into three strands and twisted in the same direction. The tail of the three-strand thread can be divided into three strands, or all can be combed and scattered into delicate tassels.
Core-spun wire: It is surrounded by core wire and outer braided wire, it is not easy to disperse, and it is round and stiff.
Polyester-cotton core-spun thread: mainly polyester, the yarn has a slight luster, the hand feels smooth and soft, the tail can be solidified after burning, and the core is crocheted thread with slight elasticity.
Pure cotton core-spun thread: 100% pure cotton material, the core thread is made of multiple yarns, the core-spun is tighter, the hand feel is a little harder than polyester-cotton, and it is not easy to pilling.
2. The difference between weaving works:
Three-strand cotton rope: relatively soft and delicate, can be spread out to make tassels, and the naturally drooping tail is slightly curled and elegant, which will add beauty to the work. Very suitable for weaving: tapestries, door curtains, flower baskets, lampshades, pillows, flowers and other works.
Core-spun thread: relatively round and stiff, it will make the woven texture look clearer and neater, suitable for weaving works with a sense of shape. It can handle various styles of bag works. It is the first choice for weaving bags. It can also weave other works, such as table flags, table mats, belts, door curtains, pillows and other works.
