Lankava Mercerised Cotton 8/4 – Light Blue – 9050

Description

This range of 8/4 cotton count is super smooth and strong with a medium sheen. It’s useful for so many projects:

• Rag rugs where the warp will be visible, using a contrasting or coordinating colour.
• Table mats and runners, where a thick and firm cloth is required.
• Dish cloths and tea towels.
• Inkle weaving.
• Crochet, using a 2.5mm hook.
• Knitting summer weight garments, using 2.5mm / size 12 needles.

This yarn is ideal as both a warp and weft on both rigid heddle and shaft looms.

8/4 is thicker than 5/2 and finer than 3/2, but can be used in place of these counts to weave similar projects producing a lighter or heavier cloth if wanted.

We stock 29 colours including unbleached natural.
