Mercerised cotton yarn is suitable for knitting, crochet and other needlework. The yarn has many properties and is practical for many purposes. It is a special type of cotton yarn that we have gathered in one category. This gives you the complete overview, so there's nothing to go wrong.
Mercerised cotton yarn for knitting and crochet
Of course, there's not just one type of mercerised cotton yarn. There are many different brands, qualities and colours. There are, of course, some cotton qualities that are more popular than others. In addition, the thickness and knitting strength can vary greatly from one yarn to another. These varieties are some of the most popular at the moment:
- Mercerized cotton yarn 8/4
- Mercerised cotton yarn 8/2
Whether you're into 8/4 or 8/2, you can of course find it in our range. If you're not sure whether mercerised cotton is for you, it's a good idea to get an overview of its properties. Mercerisation is a well-known form of pre-treatment for cotton. In this process, the fibres are exposed to soaking and a large draft. The cotton fibres become smooth and have a round cut. There are many advantages to mercerised cotton that we highly recommend working with.
The general properties of cotton are enhanced when the fibres are mercerised. This means that you can enjoy a yarn that is more lustrous and hard-wearing, and that the absorbency and softness of the fibres are enhanced. As you will already be aware, there is an additional pre-treatment of the cotton yarn. Therefore, you should also expect the price to be slightly higher. Mercerised cotton yarn is particularly suitable for those who place a high priority on quality. If you buy one of the yarns from this category, you can be sure that the quality is top class.
