ECO VITA MULTICOLOR 4 DMC

If you're looking for a durable cord with elegant gradients and a real eco-conscience, you'll love this DMC size 4 multicolored recycled cotton yarn. It has body, slides well, and leaves a clean finish on bags, baskets, and decor. Maite has tried it for a crochet tote and comments that she appreciates how the gradient transitions smoothly without "breaks" and looks professional from the first round.

Why choose this yarn for macramé and crochet

Eco Vita 4 multicolor combines aesthetics and durability. Its tubular construction with an inner core gives it more firmness than a classic cord, so pieces maintain their shape without adding weight. Carla, who is very demanding with fibers, says that she finds it "soft to the touch, but solid to work with," ideal for handles, bases, and textured stitches.
