Hoooked Cordino Yarn 33 Sandy Ecru
Hoooked is a European company whose mission, since 2008, has been to create not only fun colourful yarns, but also to tackle the waste associated with the fashion industry by using it for new yarns. Hoooked's philosophy is to reuse surplus fashion textiles in a stylish way and contribute to sustainable employment in Europe, rather than outsourcing or offshoring production elsewhere.
A truly eco-friendly yarn for the modern maker! This corded t-shirt yarn by Hoooked is perfect for macrame and also a great option for crocheted and knitted accessories and home decor items. This one is a favourite amongst makers of knitted or crocheted rugs, bags, cushions, and a host of other projects calling for a sturdy, easy-to-use firm yarn.
Made of 100% recycled fibres, Cordino by Hoooked is available in a range of scrumptious colours. They also offer some free patterns to get you inspired, which you can view here.
