Have you ever dreamt of plenty quantities of cotton that do not end right in the middle of your work? If you crochet or knit a lot, you probably know that you just use large quantities of some colors.
Meet Cotton Kings CONE 500 – a wonderful tower of amazing, durable, and soft cotton in a classic 8/4 ply-fingering weight. Here you get a total of 1859 yards (1700 m) of really great cotton.
Your cone works best if placed on the floor e.g. in a yarn bowl where it will stay put while it supplies you with yard after yard of wonderful cotton. At the same time, start getting excited about not having to weave in a lot of ends when your pretty project is done. Just to compare, one cone equals 10 skeins of “normal” 1.8 oz. (50 g) skeins in which case you would often have to change skeins and weave in a lot of ends in order to use the same amount of yarn.
Cone 500 can be combined with a lot of other 8/4 yarns such as Rainbow 8/4. Use it e.g. for interior items such as cotton blankets for the Summer house, dishcloths, guest towels, clothing, or crocheted creatures.
The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2476-419). Find more information about the certification at https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/

Beautiful soft smooth cotton that crochets like a dream. Colour is the same as shown on the website unlike many other yarns I've ordered. I can't wait for the other colours to come back into stock. I shall definately be ordering more when it does. Hobbi is excellent keeping you updated for delivery. What a breath of fresh air this company is!

Each clone has a tonne of yarn! One cone has lasted me several projects. Just be careful that the yarn is a lighter weight then advertised, it was thinner than my other 2ply/3ply yarn so some inconsistency in one of my projects (my fault not the yarn's)

Kocham tą włóczkę, w duecie z szydełkiem zachowuje się super, wcześniej kupilam kolor turkusowy a teraz dobrałam jeszcze czerwony i jestem naprawdę mile zaskoczona, bo kolory są takie jak na zdjęciach, bardzo gorąco polecam

Got this one at a very good price, the colour of it is exactly as shown and expected. I have to say it does meet my expectations so I’m looking to get more of the same in the near future.
All in all, very pleased with this purchase.

I was looking for a finer cotton in Christmas red to make table mats and coasters for Christmas. This was so perfect and lovely to work with. I did double up but it was so easy having the big skeins. I love all the colours too.
