What is Satin Cord Rattail?
Satin Cord is a term referring to satin cord, rattail, knotting cord, braiding or kumihimo cord, macrame cord and other jewelry and craft cords. It refers to the sheen and feel of the cord, not the actual fabric. Satin fabric is woven to have a glossy side and dull side. Satin fabric can be made of many threads, including silk, acetate, polyeser and even cotton (sateen).
Satin Cord is made of nylon, rayon, cotton and various blends. Some of the cord has cotton core, some is hollow. Some cord is braided, some is smooth.
The actual term rattail refers to a type of rayon cord with a cotton core.
Satin Cord and Rattail both come in various mm of thickness to suit your jewelry and craft making needs.
Jewelry String often refers to a thin satin cord - you may find it in thin braided nylon, cotton, elastic and even silk. Jewelry String is great for beading and micro macrame projects.
Both satin cord and rattail come in metallic flicked and multi-colored varieties.
We offer nylon, rayon and nylon blend cords at Satin Cord and More. The rayon cord has a smooth, matte sheen and is softer and has a lighter hand than nylon. It drapes easier and knots well. The nylon cord has a brighter sheen and is more durable, frays less and is easily manipulated and knotted
