Fine cotton boucle single skeins

£2.25

Please note I am currently unable to ship this item to USA, Northern Ireland or Europe.

This is a new cotton boucle yarn that I'm stocking from August 2025; it's much finer than my previous cotton boucle, which I can no longer source. This one has a fine texture, and a nylon core for strength - the nylon core means that each skein will have a white core alongside the dyed cotton component, which I find quite attractive. It couches beautifully with a finer or contrasting thread and is perfect for adding texture to daily stitching or experimental embroidery. You can use it doubled if you want a thicker couched line. It comes in skeins of about ten yards and has been hand-dyed with Procion, like all my other threads. As always, colours are unique and unrepeatable, and I can't guarantee that anything is completely colourfast. Yardage estimates are approximate.

Please choose from the drop down menu to select a colour (please note - where multiples exist, they are not necessarily identical, but they are very similar):

TCB1 lemon taupe - lemon yellows and pale grey-browns
TCB2 sunset - golden yellow and peachy pinks
TCB3 rose - dusky rose pinks
TCB4 lilacs - pinkish-lavender lilacs
TCB5 heather - magenta-purples and grey-browns
TCB6 sky - warm pale blues
TCB7 sage - grey-greens and green-greys
TCB8 lichen - golden yellow/ochre with lichen-greens
TCB9 wood - medium woodsy browns
TCB10 pewter - steely greys
TCB11 winter - dark greys and browns
TCB12 russet - brownish/terracotta red-pinks
TCB13 cocoa - cocoa nibs, warm dark browns

The size and shape of the skeins means that they count as a large letter, for mailing purposes - the postage cost is too expensive for a single skein, but you can add several of these to another purchase for no additional postage cost. I have several other kinds of thread available as single skeins so that you can build your own collection.

UK postage will be via standard first class; all overseas post will be via Royal Mail International Tracked.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION for non-UK customers - please read before ordering:- Please ensure that you pick the correct country from the drop-down menu. Choosing UK, when you don’t live in the UK, will cause the automated checkout to apply UK shipping rates, and this causes extra work for me as I then have to invoice you for the additional amount. You must pay the correct shipping rate for your country, please. I am sorry that I am currently unable to post items to USA, Northern Ireland or Europe.
- Your purchase may be subject to additional customs charges depending on your location. You can use online import tax calculators to estimate what the additional import charges will be before you buy. Please be aware that I have no control at all over how much you will be charged in import duties; it is your responsibility to find out before making a purchase.
- Your customs office may occasionally open and inspect your parcel before delivering it to you. Please understand that I have no control over this.
- When paying by card, please try and remember your purchase when your bank statement arrives. The amount will look different because of the currency conversion. If you initiate a dispute with your bank because you don’t recognise the amount, I have to prove to your bank that you did make the purchase, and I am charged a non-refundable fee even if the purchase was genuine. Please contact me before initiating a dispute if you are in any doubt about your purchase.
