Cotton Warp Yarn for Weaving | 100% Cotton | 3 Sizes Available

Strong cotton warp yarn designed for reliable weaving.

This 100% cotton warp yarn is spun in Germany from American cotton and constructed specifically for use as warp on the loom. The tightly structured yarn provides strength and stability during weaving.

Available in three different thicknesses, the yarn can be used for a wide range of weaving projects — from strong textiles to lighter woven fabrics.

Supplied on 250g cones, the yarn feeds smoothly and consistently when warping and weaving.

The cotton fibre also makes this yarn suitable for traditional natural dyeing, producing beautiful results with natural dyes.

Available Sizes

Size Length Construction Approx. Length per Cone
Thick 133m / 100g Nm 20/3 × 5 (15-ply) ~332m
Medium 222m / 100g Nm 20/3 × 3 (9-ply) ~555m
Thin 333m / 100g Nm 20/3 × 2 (6-ply) ~832m

Suggested Warp Sett (EPI)

These values provide a general starting point. Final sett will vary depending on weave structure and desired fabric density.

Yarn Suggested Sett Suitable Projects
Thick Cotton Warp 8–12 epi rugs, bags, strong textiles
Medium Cotton Warp 12–16 epi towels, medium fabrics
Thin Cotton Warp 16–22 epi scarves, lightweight fabrics

Open weave structures may require a slightly lower sett, while twills and denser fabrics may benefit from a higher sett.

DONEGAL TWEED YARN 

100% Irish Wool | Aran Weight | Spun in Donegal 🇮🇪

There is a particular honesty to Donegal tweed.

Born of landscape, weather, and generations of textile tradition, this yarn carries the quiet complexity of the Irish coast — soft greys, moss greens, ocean blues, and the subtle flecking that defines Donegal's characteristic landscape.

Spun and commercially dyed in Kilcar, Co. Donegal, this is an authentic Irish Aran-weight yarn made from 100% pure new wool. It is warm, durable, and deeply satisfying to knit with — the kind of yarn that settles into garments made to be worn for years.

Whether you are knitting a traditional Aran jumper or a contemporary everyday piece, Donegal tweed brings depth, texture, and heritage into every stitch.

In a nutshell

  • Fibre: 100% pure new wool
  • Weight: Aran / worsted weight
  • Length: 80 m per 50 g ball
  • Ball weight: 50 g
  • Recommended needle size: 4 mm (US 6 / UK 8)
  • Origin: Spun and dyed in Kilcar, Co. Donegal, Ireland 🇮🇪

What it is ideal for

• Traditional Aran jumpers
• Sweaters and cardigans
• Hats, scarves, and mittens
• Durable everyday knitwear

Character

Donegal tweed is known for its heathered base and distinctive flecks, created during blending, carding and spinning. These subtle variations give finished garments depth and life, and connect them to a long Irish textile tradition.

Care

Hand wash gently in cool water
Reshape whilst damp
Dry flat

Shade continuity

As with all traditionally spun yarns, subtle variation exists between dye lots.
If working on a larger project, we recommend ordering sufficient yarn to complete your garment.

Colourways

Available in a range of traditional Donegal tweed shades, each reflecting the colours of the Irish landscape.
