In-Depth Review
Elevate Your Fiber Art Responsibly
GANXXET has revolutionized the macrame world by providing high-fashion colors without the high environmental cost. Their signature Combed Cotton Cord is manufactured using textile waste from the garment industry. Instead of dyeing new virgin cotton—a process that consumes thousands of gallons of water—this cord is created by shredding pre-consumer textile waste and spinning it into new, luxurious yarn.
The texture of this cord is exceptionally soft, making it ideal for intricate wall hangings, plant hangers, and even wearable fiber art. Because it is OEKO-TEX certified, you can be certain that every inch of string is free from harmful substances and safe for contact with skin. This is particularly important for those making jewelry or items for nurseries.
Technical Superiority
- Single-strand twist for easy brushing and fringe effects
- Consistency in thickness (3mm/4mm/5mm options)
- Available in over 50 unique shades
- Zero-waste spool cores made from recycled paper
