Maksi mop yarn
Mop Yarn, aka Maksi mop yarn, is Finnish single twisted yarn featuring recycled materials. Thanks to a blend of 80% of recycled cotton and 20% polyester, Mop Yarn is a durable yarn for crocheting, macrame and carpet weaving – to mention but a few ideas!
Maksi mop yarn is made of upcycled cotton coming from the leftovers of textile industry. The yarn itself is not dyed, the colors of the yarn form from mixing together different colors of leftover materials. To add durability to the fiber, there is 20% polyester mixed with the recycled cotton material. Maksi mop yarn comes in classic shades and 1 kilo cones. Each cone has app. 400 meters of yarn. The thickness of the Maksi mop yarn is app. 3mm.

Please do note that variations between different lots may occur due to the usage of a recycled material. If you need more than 400 meters of yarn to your work, always make sure you have enough yarn with same shade. Also note that depending on one’s monitor adjustments, the picture color shades might look different compared to the real yarn.
Always follow the care instructions. Maksi mop yarns may be washed in maximum of 30°C delicate wash with plenty of water and a low amount of detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry flat with good airing. The temperature markings for washing and ironing are all “at most“ temperatures. Always wash with similar colors, light and dark colored textiles separately.
