Thread and Yarn Guide

We´ve divided the use of threads and yarns into several categories based on our experience:

Sewing: Cotton threads, polyester threads, or blends are often used for sewing clothing, accessories, and home textiles. These threads are strong, easy to sew with, and provide sufficient durability.
Bobbin Lace: Fine cotton or linen yarns are often used for bobbin lace. These yarns have sufficient fineness and stiffness to create detailed and delicate patterns.
Tatting: Fine yarns are often chosen for tatting, which are easy to manipulate and allow for the creation of complex patterns. Cotton is a classic material for tatting.
Crochet and Knitting: Various types of yarns are used for crochet and knitting, including acrylic, wool, cotton, and blended yarns. The choice depends on the desired appearance, thermal properties, and wearing comfort.
Macrame: For macrame, strong and durable yarns, such as hemp or polyester cords, are often used. These yarns allow for the creation of strong and stable knots.
Other Crafts: There are many other types of crafts, and each of these techniques requires a specific type of thread or yarn that corresponds to the desired appearance and processability.

However, it is important to note that this is just a basic division for quick orientation. In practice, we like to experiment and use materials that are not specifically intended for a given use in order to create unique and interesting results.
