10 Skeins Sensy Premium 4mm Macrame Ribbon - Durable Ecru Cord

In this review the 10 Skeins of Sensy Premium 4mm macrame ribbon is examined for crafters who need consistent, sturdy cord for macrame, crochet bags and home projects. The single biggest reason to buy is the heavy 200g balls that yield 100 meters each, which keeps tension and color consistent across larger projects. The reviewer found the material well suited to structured bags and knotwork and notes the ribbon-like appearance that some may prefer for flat stitch definition. Care instructions and a polypropylene build also make it a low-maintenance choice for practical craft use.

Key Features

• Material: 100% polypropylene gives the cord a strong, water-resistant finish that holds knots and shape well for macrame and bag construction.
• Ball Size: Each 200g / 7oz ball provides a long 100 meter / 109 yard length, reducing the number of joins needed for larger projects.
• Knitting Gauge: The cord works at 21-24 sts and 28-32 rows with a 3.75-4.5 mm needle, offering predictable stitch tension for knitted items.
• Crochet Gauge: It also performs with 12-17 sc and 16-20 rows using a 4.5-5.5 mm hook, which is useful for structured crochet accessories like market bags.
• Care: Machine-washable at 30c or below and requires no ironing, making finished items easy to maintain and suitable for everyday use.

Who It's For

This product is best for crafters who make sturdy, structural pieces such as crochet market bags, macrame plant hangers, or decorative knotwork that benefit from a flat, ribbon-like cord. Hobbyists and makers who want long balls to minimize joins will appreciate the 100 meter length per skein, and those who need washable finished goods will value the polypropylene care instructions.

Those seeking very soft, traditional yarn for garments or delicate lace should look elsewhere; the ribbon profile and synthetic fiber are intended for durability and shape rather than drape. Also, color seekers should note this listing is the ecru shade, which is neutral but not variegated.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Strong polypropylene composition that holds knots and structure well for macrame and bags.
• Large 200g balls with 100 meters each reduce joins and keep projects consistent.
• Clear knitting and crochet gauge recommendations make it easy to match tension and hook/needle sizes.

Cons

• The flat, ribbon-like appearance may not suit makers who prefer traditional, round yarn texture for soft garments.
