About this Cotton Thread Tube
StudioKnots Cotton Thread Tubes are designed for chunky hand knitting, arm knitting, and modern blanket making. This super-chunky yarn is made from a soft 100% cotton outer tube with a durable polyester-filled core, giving it structure, flexibility, and a smooth, comfortable feel in the hands. With an approximate thickness of 3 cm, cotton thread tubes create clean, even stitches and a contemporary chunky knit look that works beautifully for blankets, cushions, rugs, and home décor projects.
Unlike traditional wool yarns, cotton thread tubes offer a low-maintenance, non-shedding alternative that is comfortable to work with and practical for everyday use. The breathable cotton surface feels gentle in the hands, while the internal core supports shape retention, helping finished projects maintain their form over time. This makes the yarn particularly suitable for chunky blankets used on beds and sofas, as well as durable pet beds and functional interior accessories.
Each cotton thread tube is supplied as one continuous, seamless long ball, allowing large projects to be knitted without joins or interruptions. This uninterrupted construction supports consistent tension and is especially beneficial for arm knitting and large-needle work. The yarn can be used comfortably for tool-free hand knitting or with 30–40 mm knitting needles, depending on the desired technique and stitch definition.
Manufactured in Lithuania (EU) to high quality textile standards, StudioKnots cotton thread tubes are designed for makers who value durability, comfort, and a refined contemporary aesthetic.
Yarn Yield Guide – How Much Do I Need?

| 2 kg | Blanket approx. 80 × 100 cm (around 13 mesh openings) |
| 3 kg | Blanket approx. 90 × 150 cm (starting with 15 stitches) |
Yarn usage may vary depending on stitch tension, knitting style, and desired density. If you are between sizes, choosing the larger amount allows greater flexibility during the knitting process.

Jelena –
First time trying arm knitting and this yarn made it so easy. The loops sit perfectly and the Baby Pink colour is stunning. Will definitely be back for more!
