thrown away. made beautiful. Loop 8 in Bus Stop Ketchup — a warm, orange-shifted red with no pretensions whatsoever. Not a red that wants to be dramatic. This is the ketchup bottle on a Formica table, the plastic tray at a greasy spoon — the colour of ordinary life, done loudly and completely without apology. It works as a statement, as an accent, or as the whole point.

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, 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 4–5 — recycled yarn held to exactly the same standard as anything else on the market.

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.
