Fincrochet is a 100% extra-long staple Egyptian cotton, mercerized and shrinkfast, solid-dyed in both white and ecru. Fincrochet ecru is very different from basic ecru - other less expensive, "natural" exru crochet cotton is undyed and may lose its color through washing and over time. Fincrochet ecru is bleachfast, solid-dyed color C3000 which guarantees its exact color for a lifetime, clearly the best choice for heirloom quality crochet and tatting. An excellent cotton for both tatting and crochet, as well as other needlearts. 50 gram ball.
