This 9mm braided recycled cotton cord in terracotta brings a warm, earthy tone to macrame, weaving, chunky crochet, and fibre art projects. Made from 95% upcycled cotton sourced from the garment industry, it's a cord that does something good — for your craft and for the planet. A thoughtful, practical gift for any maker in your life, too.
✨ Features
- ♻️ 95% Recycled Cotton: Made from upcycled fabric offcuts from the garment industry — giving textile waste a proper second life.
- 🎨 No Dye Process: The terracotta colour comes from selecting similar-toned garments, not from dyeing. This cuts water usage by half and significantly reduces CO₂ emissions.
- 🧵 Cotton-Filled Core: Unlike most braided cords, the inner filler is the same recycled cotton — not polyester. It unravels beautifully for soft, natural fringe details.
- 📏 Generous Length: Each spool contains 164 feet (50 metres) — plenty for plant hangers, wall art, lamps, and larger projects.
- ⚖️ Weight: 2.2 lb (1 kg) ± 5%
- 📐 Diameter: 9mm (0.35 inch) — well-suited for bulky, textured work
- 🏅 Quality Assured: Meets European and American standards and norms.
💛 Benefits
- 🌿 A sustainable choice: Every spool helps divert cotton waste from landfill — your craft supports a circular economy.
- 🪢 Versatile use: Works well for macrame plant hangers, wall hangings, lamps, handbags, rugs, XXL knitting, and crochet projects.
- 🖼️ Rich, bold texture: The 9mm braided construction gives a chunky, tactile look that stands out in wall art and statement pieces.
- 🎁 A gift worth giving: A great pick for crafters, makers, and anyone who loves sustainable, hands-on creativity.
- ✂️ Fringe-friendly: Pull out the cotton core to create soft, natural fringe — something polyester-filled alternatives simply can't offer.

📝 Good to Know
Because this cord is made from recycled fibres, colour shades can vary slightly between batches — that's part of what makes each spool its own. For colour-specific projects, ordering a little extra is a good idea. Screen colours may also look slightly different from what arrives at your door.
GANXXET cords sell out regularly, so if you've been thinking about it, it's worth grabbing your spool sooner rather than later.
