Product Information

Secure the free end of the string so you can pull against it. So you should have a length of string secured at one end, then running through a tube of fabric and attached to the far end of the fabric tube. Now you're ready to start making the tube yarn. It's very easy to take care of the cotton tube yarn products. They are machine washable. So it means, whenever, you need to clean your product - just put it in the washing machine on a medium care program.

We sell our Big Cotton tube yarn by weight. Each skein weighs 1.1 lbs / 0.5 kg and is about 57 ft / 689 in / 17.5 m / 19 yds. All of our yarn is weighted by hand, so slight variations may occur. If you're making the fill from relatively short pieces, you can pre-make long ropes so it's ready to use when you make the tube yarn. Our Big Cotton tube yarn is perfect for a variety of projects, including but not limited to: blankets, pillows, baby boats, pet beds, wreaths, baskets.So instead I decided to try hand-knitting, and it turns out that it’s a super simple and totally doable craft, even for a complete beginner with no knitting experience. I was able to hand knit this cool DIY chunky blanket in a couple of hours:

Fill: As a practical matter, you'll want fill that's already basically in "rope" form since it would be time consuming to form it into a rope as you go, and difficult to make it a uniform density if you're forming it from a big wad. You might be able to buy fiberfill "rope" on a big reel. If not, you could use something else for fill. Examples: Now you’ll start creating knit stitches, which is the simple stitch you’ll repeat to hand knit the whole blanket. You are ready to start your first row, working toward the left. Each time you start a new row, you will skip the first loop, which is the last one you just made. This gives you a more finished edge on each side of the blanket. Where the fill is hanging out, you will have the ends of the old and new sections, with the new section as a layer on top. Hand-stitch the two layers together near the edge to join the sections. The excess fabric will become hidden on the inside. Below is an estimate for how many skeins are typically needed for some popular projects. These are just estimates and actual amounts will depend on the yarn, the project, and the creator. The bigger the project, the bigger the variation possible. If in doubt, we recommend purchasing an extra skein (or 2)!

How Much Yarn will I need?

Our Big Cotton tube yarn is made with cotton on the outside and soft, pillow-like polyester fibers on the inside. It is a modern twist on traditional yarn and is easy to work with.

Chunky chenille yarn is great if you’re working on a budget or your prefer a cozy blanket that’s a lighter weight. It’s a fuzzy yarn so it doesn’t give you the same clean, modern look that tube yarn does, but if you’re more concerned with feel than looks, chenille is probably the way to go. This is what the chenille version looks like: How Much Yarn will I need?String: You need one piece of string or twine that is longer than the first section of tube. This should be smooth and "slippery" rather than rough twine like sissal. The cotton tube yarn is created from a woven cotton fabric outside part. The outside part of the yarn is completely weaved all around the thread, which means that there are no seams along the thread. This provides a smooth and neat look for the thread in all its length. Inside of the thread is filled with special long polyester fibers. The long polyester fibers ensure that the thread is even and doesn't have any clumps along the thread. A bundle of strips of loosely-twisted cloth cut from rags, or odds and ends that a fabric shop wants to get rid of. Material like jersey, fleece, or old flannel will have some bulk and softness. But even strips of thinner, flat fabric, like old sheets, will work when they are loosely twisted and then bundled. Stagger where individual pieces start and end, but you don't need to go to great lengths to secure the ends together. It can be hard to figure out how much yarn you’ll need, because it will vary depending on how big of a blanket you’d like to make and how loose or tight you make your stitches. But I’ll share what I used for both my own blankets so you have an idea:

Then skip the loop you just made, and continue knit stitching toward the left. Everytime you get to the end of a row you’ll stitch through the skipped loop from the row before. Everytime you start a going in a new direction, you’ll skip the very last loop you just made. This gives the sides of your blanket a braided finish. Joining New Yarn Our Big Cotton tube yarn is easy to make with. You can use extra big knitting needles, but we prefer to use our hands! Our free, step-by-step video tutorials are available on YouTube so you can learn how to create several popular items! Honestly, the hardest part of this project might be figuring out what type of yarn you’d like to use! Here are some options for super fat yarns: Merino wool You seam the first section of tube with no fill; that gets added in the next step. The tube gets seamed inside out. For the first section, use a piece of fabric ribbon that is not the shortest piece. Fold the fabric ribbon in half the long way with the good face on the inside (you stitch a flattened, inside-out tube). Cotton tube yarn is hypoallergenic. Cotton and polyester are materials that are safe for people with sensitive skin and allergies.

Fabric ribbon: The circumference of the tube will be 22/7 times the diameter. Add about 3/4" to 1" to that for seaming, and that will be the width of the ribbon needed to make the tube. The longer the ribbon, the fewer joints you'll need along the length.
