Polyester Macrame Cord 2mm 5 Skeins (750 ft each) - Craft

Our review of the Polyester Macrame Cord set finds it best suited for hobbyists and crafters who want a long-lasting, colorful supply for macrame wall hangings, plant hangers, bags and table accessories. The biggest reason to buy is the huge length per spool and the soft, heat-fusible polypropylene construction, which makes joining ends and working long projects far easier than many budget cords. It is a practical choice when you need consistent 2mm cord that is washable and available in many natural-looking colors.

Key Features

• Large quantity: Each 200 g skein provides about 750 ft (250 yards) of 2 mm cord, giving ample material for multiple projects or large pieces without frequent restocking.
• Material and feel: Made from 100% polypropylene with a polyester finish, the cord offers a soft, smooth surface that is comfortable for extended knotting and crocheting sessions.
• Heat-fusible ends: The cord can be joined by heating the cut ends, which creates a tidier, more secure finish for long runs or repair work.
• Washable and erasable: The cord is suitable for items that may need laundering or light cleaning, making it practical for wearable bags or home accessories.
• Versatile use: Sized at 2 mm, it works well for bohemian wall hangings, plant hangers, crochet bags and table underplates where a thin, consistent cord is required.
• Color range: Offered in many natural-looking shades, the selection helps match decor and project palettes without much dye variation issues.

Who It's For

This cord set is aimed at intermediate and experienced macrame makers who plan larger projects or multiple pieces and need a reliable, continuous supply of 2 mm cord. It also suits crochet crafters making handbags who value a soft, smooth yarn that is comfortable on the hands and easy to knot.

Beginners who want to practice small knots can use it, but those seeking a very rigid or heavily textured cord for strong structural items might look for thicker or different-fiber options. If extreme durability under heavy load is required, consider cords marketed specifically for load-bearing ropework.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Exceptional length per skein, reducing the need to splice multiple pieces for large projects.
• Soft and smooth texture that customers report is gentle on fingers during extended crocheting or knotting.
• Heat-fusible polypropylene makes joining and finishing easier and neater than raw-cut ends.
• Good value for money given the amount of cord provided in each roll.

Cons

• Some users report fraying on cut ends if not properly heat-fused, so extra finishing care is necessary.
• The shiny surface may not suit every aesthetic if a completely matte, rustic look is preferred.
