Splash-Proof. Shine-Proof. Summer-Ready.

Get ready for beach season with Lily's Loop™ "Crystal Jelly" Yarn. Made from 100% Polyethylene (PE), this unique 3-ply cord combines the durability of fishing line with the flexibility of yarn.

It features a stunning crystal-like sheen that catches the sunlight, making it the ultimate choice for crocheting waterproof Beach Bags, trendy Mesh Market Totes, and durable Sun Hats. Unlike regular cotton, it doesn't absorb water or hold onto sand—just shake it off and go!

Why It’s the "It" Yarn for Summer:

  • 🌊 100% Waterproof & Stain Resistant: Spilled your iced coffee? Dropped your bag in the sand? No problem. This yarn is non-absorbent and wipes clean instantly. Perfect for coasters, placemats, and poolside accessories.

  • 💎 "Jelly" Gloss Texture: The material has a translucent, glassy finish that looks trendy and modern. It creates structured, 3D stitches that pop!

  • 🧶 Beginner-Friendly Thickness (1mm): While traditional fishing line is too thin and slippery, our "Crystal Jelly" is twisted into a 3-ply, 1mm cord. It’s easy to grip, easy to see, and works up quickly with a 2.5mm - 3.0mm hook.

  • 💪 Strong & Durable: Don't let the "soft touch" fool you. This PE cord is incredibly tough. It won't pill, fade, or snap, making it ideal for heavy-duty grocery bags.

What Can You Make? (Project Ideas)

💡 Pro-Tips for Working with PE Cord

  1. Relax Your Hands: Plastic yarn has less stretch than wool. Try to keep a loose tension to avoid hand fatigue.

  2. Hook Choice: A Metal Hook works best as it allows the plastic cord to slide smoothly.

  3. Joining: Since you can't weave in ends like wool, we recommend melting the tips slightly with a lighter (carefully!) to fuse the knot for a permanent hold.
