thrown away. made beautiful. Loop 8 in Nosebleed — a sharp, high-saturated red that hits hard and doesn't apologise for it. Not cherry, not crimson — just pure, unapologetic red. The colour that makes everything around it stand at attention.

why it works for tufting

Loop 8 is an 8-ply super bulky yarn, and that density is exactly what makes it tuft so well. More plies means more volume per stitch, so your rug builds up faster, looks fuller, and feels genuinely plush underfoot.

The texture is soft and fluffy without being fragile. It holds its shape under a tufting gun, strong enough to feed cleanly through the needle and consistent enough to keep your pile even row after row. The result? Rugs that look thick, feel bouncy, and have that satisfying, cloud-like quality that makes people want to sink their feet in.

Because it's made from 100% recycled PET, none of that performance is compromised. GRS-certified, formaldehyde-free, and colour-tested to grade 4 to 5. Recycled yarn held to exactly the same standard as anything else on the market.

best for plush, not carving

One honest note before you add to cart. Loop 8 is built for soft, even, high-pile work. Its recycled fibres are densely interlocked, which is exactly what gives it that plush, bouncy body and makes it so forgiving for beginners. That same density means it's designed to be sheared flat, not carved. If your rugs rely on sculpting sharp height changes, detailed carving, or crisp relief, this isn't the yarn for the job. For flat shearing, plush pile, and clean colour blocking, it's right at home.

what it's for

Loop 8 is designed for rug tufting, but works equally well across punch needle, weaving, and crochet. Anywhere you need a yarn that's bulky, consistent, and built to last.
