DMC Babylo is loved for its smooth, even twist, which helps maintain consistent tension and prevents splitting — essential for clean, precise stitch work. The double‑mercerisation process enhances both strength and lustre, giving your finished pieces a refined, professional appearance while ensuring long‑lasting durability.
The No.20 thickness is ideal for lace edgings, doilies, table linens, motifs and decorative accents that benefit from a slightly more substantial thread while still retaining fine detail. Its approx. 733m length per 100g ball offers excellent value, allowing you to work comfortably on larger or multi‑motif projects with fewer joins and a beautifully consistent finish.
Babylo’s soft yet resilient structure glides smoothly through the hook, producing neat, defined stitches that showcase intricate patterns. With OEKO‑TEX certification, you can craft confidently knowing the thread is free from harmful substances.
A premium crochet cotton for makers who appreciate quality, elegance and the beauty of detailed thread crochet.
