Give your next macrame or weaving project some real texture and character. Ganxxet's 9mm Braided Recycled Cotton Cord in Bimini is a thick, beautifully crafted cord made from 95% upcycled cotton — diverted from garments that would otherwise end up in landfill. Whether you're making a plant hanger, a statement wall hanging, or a chunky knit rug, this cord delivers a bold, natural look that's hard to achieve with standard rope.
✨ Features
- 🌿 Recycled Cotton Construction: Made from 95% upcycled cotton fibres sourced from the garment industry — no virgin cotton, no unnecessary waste.
- 🎨 Colour Without Dyeing: Colour is created by selecting similar-toned garments and breaking them back down to fibre — halving water usage and significantly cutting CO₂ emissions compared to traditional dyeing.
- 🪢 Cotton-Filled Core: Unlike most braided cords that use a polyester filler, the inside is also recycled cotton in the same colour — making it easy to unravel and create soft, natural fringe.
- 📏 Generous Length: Each skein contains 164 feet (50 metres) — plenty for large-scale projects.
- ⚖️ Weight: 2.2 lb (1 kg) ± 5%
- 🔵 Diameter: 9mm (0.35 inch) — ideal for chunky, bulky textures.
- ✅ Meets Safety Standards: Compliant with both European and American standards.
💛 Benefits
- 🌍 Every purchase helps keep textile waste out of landfill — a small choice with a real environmental impact.
- 🪴 Thick enough for XXL macrame projects, plant hangers, lamps, wall art, handbags, rugs, and oversized crochet or knitting.
- ✂️ The all-cotton core means you can pull it apart for beautiful, soft fringe — no scratchy polyester inside.
- 🎁 A thoughtful, sustainable gift for crafters, makers, and anyone who loves hands-on creative projects.
- 🏡 Adds warmth and natural texture to any home décor project — no two skeins are identical, which only adds to the handmade feel.
