GIST | Beam 8/2 Organic Cotton Weaving Yarn
The GIST Beam 8/2 Organic Cotton Weaving Yarn is a true workhorse that you will reach for again and again. Spun from 100% unmercerised organic cotton in India, it offers a smooth, balanced feel that is both durable and versatile, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of weaving projects.
This yarn is especially well suited for towels, table linens, and lightweight scarves or shawls, where absorbency and softness are key. It performs beautifully in traditional twill structures, creating crisp definition and a lovely drape. Beam 8/2 also shines in overshot weaving as the ground and tabby yarn, pairing effortlessly with thicker pattern wefts like Beam 3/2 or 3/4 to create striking, textured designs.
Each cone provides generous yardage, making it ideal for larger projects or consistent warps. Easy-care and practical, finished pieces can be machine-washed and dried, making them perfect for everyday use.
