Macrame Solid Color Cord Thread

Macrame Cord is usually a 6 strand (or more) braided cord, or what I believe was most commonly used for macrame in the '70s and early '80s when cotton string wasn't really 'the thing' to use. The very, very tightly wound cotton macrame solid color cord thread is also called "sash cord."

Sash cord is a bit stiff to use, and very difficult to unravel, but it is extremely strong, so it's good for weight bearing pieces and if you're looking to add lots of structure to your work. Macrame cord, in my experience, is the toughest on the hands, but when you want a certain look or functionality, no pain no gain!
