At two and a half centimetres this is closer to rope than cord. It is no longer sewn but knotted, wrapped and tensioned – for home decor, hanging shelves, macramé and objects.

Twisted cords are made by twisting several strands together. That gives the surface its characteristic spiral structure, which catches light differently from a smoothly braided cord.

Take care when cutting: a twisted cord unwinds at the open end immediately. Wrap the spot with tape before cutting and secure the end straight afterwards.

End caps, a firm knot or, with synthetic fibre, a brief touch of flame will secure it. Without securing, the twist gradually unravels along the whole length.

This size is not meant for sewing. It is knotted, spliced or fixed with hardware; in macramé it forms the load bearing structure from which finer cords hang.

Good to know

Can I sew this cord?

Practically not. It is knotted, wrapped or fixed with hardware. For sewing projects, much thinner sizes are the right choice.

What is it used for?

Hanging shelves, macramé objects, wall hangings, swings and decoration. Wherever the material itself carries the construction and stays visible as part of the design.

How do I secure the end?

With firm whipping, a large knot or a splice. With synthetic fibre melting helps as well; with natural fibre, whipping is the only lasting solution.
