TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: What are you really buying?
TessilGlam is an innovative solution for anyone who wants to create jewelry and accessories with a yarn that combines superior technical performance and a refined look. Let’s take a closer look at the features that make this thread truly unique.
1. Fiber composition and yarn structure
TessilGlam’s 80% cotton and 20% polyester blend is the result of careful development to achieve the perfect balance between natural feel and technical performance. The cotton core provides a stable, strong base, ensuring that finished pieces keep their shape over time without stretching out. Cotton also adds breathability and a natural hand feel.
The polyester wrap gently encases the core, giving the yarn outstanding glide that makes crocheting significantly easier. This synthetic fiber also enhances the yarn’s sheen, creating luminous reflections that highlight every stitch. The resulting texture is soft and velvety, comfortable to handle during long crafting sessions.
The spiral twist is TessilGlam’s standout feature: it completely prevents the yarn from splitting while you work, eliminating one of the most common issues with ultra-fine threads. This construction keeps the strand compact and even, allowing for perfectly defined stitches—even in more intricate designs.
2. Technical specs and workability
With a 0,5 mm thickness, TessilGlam falls into the fine-yarn category, ideal for precision work and detailed projects. The 50-meter roll format offers generous length to make multiple pieces of jewelry or decorative items without frequent interruptions.
Recommended crochet hooks range from 1.25 mm to 1.75 mm, with the option to use slightly larger sizes for a softer, airier effect. Interestingly, compared to other yarns of similar thickness, TessilGlam often works best with slightly larger hooks—thanks to its spiral structure, which creates a denser, more defined strand.
- Optimal tension: the compact structure helps maintain consistent tension, preventing unwanted loosening
- Superior glide: the polyester wrap allows the hook to move smoothly through stitches
- Precision details: the fine thickness supports miniature elements and refined finishing
- Beginner-friendly: anti-splitting reduces common learning frustrations
The yarn’s pliability makes it easy to shape 3D forms and complex structures, holding the desired shape once completed.
3. Creative uses and ideal projects
TessilGlam is specifically designed for crochet jewelry and fashion accessories, but its creative possibilities go far beyond that. Its fineness and elegance make it perfect for a wide range of refined projects.

4. Benefits of the spiral anti-splitting twist
TessilGlam’s spiral twist is a true technical innovation in jewelry yarns. This construction offers real advantages that translate into a better crafting experience.
No splitting: the most common issue with fine yarns is that fibers separate when the hook enters, creating uneven stitches and slowing you down. TessilGlam’s spiral structure keeps the fibers perfectly bound, allowing the hook to pass through without ever splitting the strand. The result is uniform, professional-looking stitches from the very first rows.
Consistent tension: the compact twist helps the yarn hold steady tension throughout the project. No sudden looseness or overly tight sections—your finished pieces look even and polished.
Improved strength: despite its fine thickness, the spiral structure gives TessilGlam higher tensile strength than many traditional yarns of the same size. Finished jewelry retains its structure even with everyday wear.
Faster work: fewer interruptions from splitting or snagging mean you can crochet more quickly, making the process smoother and more enjoyable. Beginners can progress faster with less frustration.
5. Aesthetic result and finished quality
TessilGlam stands out for the high-end look it gives to finished pieces. The cotton/polyester blend creates visual and tactile effects that elevate every project.
The polyester sheen adds light-catching reflections for a subtle satin finish without looking overly glossy. This balance makes it perfect for elegant jewelry that should feel refined rather than artificial. The cotton core offsets that shine, keeping the overall effect natural and sophisticated.
The velvety hand feel makes jewelry comfortable to wear. Unlike fully synthetic threads that can feel stiff or plasticky, TessilGlam maintains a natural softness that feels pleasant against the skin.
Stitch definition: the fine thickness and compact structure deliver incredibly precise, well-defined stitches. Lace patterns look crisp, while solid work creates smooth, professional surfaces.
Dimensional stability: finished pieces hold their shape over time. The cotton core helps prevent stretching and sagging, while polyester helps preserve the original appearance without losing sheen.
TessilGlam offers an excellent quality-to-price ratio: with 50 meters per roll, it provides generous length for multiple jewelry pieces, making each creation accessible even for first-timers.
Care: How to keep your pieces beautiful over time
Creations made with TessilGlam are designed as decorative accessories to wear and don’t require frequent washing. To preserve their beauty and integrity over time, follow these simple tips:
- Avoid prolonged contact with water: soaking can affect the yarn’s structure and sheen
- Keep away from perfumes, creams, or detergents: chemicals may damage fibers and change the jewelry’s appearance
- Do not machine-wash or hand-wash: jewelry is not designed for traditional washing
- Gentle cleaning if needed: lightly dab with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water, avoiding rubbing
- Air dry naturally: let it dry completely away from direct heat sources such as radiators or direct sunlight
- Store properly: keep jewelry in a dry place, preferably in separate containers or soft pouches to prevent friction between pieces
- Protect from humidity: avoid very humid environments that could affect the cotton component
By following these guidelines, your TessilGlam jewelry will keep its shape, color, and shine over time—so you can enjoy your creations for longer.
Frequently Asked Questions
What crochet hook size should I use with TessilGlam?
TessilGlam works best with 1.25 mm to 1.75 mm crochet hooks. However, thanks to its compact structure, it can also adapt well to slightly larger sizes (up to 2 mm) for a softer, airier effect. Compared to other yarns of similar thickness, it may require slightly larger hooks due to the spiral twist that creates a denser strand.
Is it beginner-friendly?
Absolutely. TessilGlam’s spiral anti-splitting twist makes it especially easy to manage even for beginners. It eliminates yarn splitting—one of the most common obstacles when learning—so you can achieve uniform, professional-looking stitches from the start.
What kind of jewelry can I make with this yarn?
TessilGlam is perfect for creating bracelets, earrings, necklaces, rings, charms, keychains, and brooches. Its fine 0,5 mm thickness also lets you make miniature details and very refined lace patterns. It’s ideal for projects that require precision and lightness.
Can I pair TessilGlam with other materials?
Definitely! TessilGlam pairs beautifully with other decorative materials. In particular, it matches perfectly with 4 mm crystals available on Tessiland, adding shine and a precious touch to your jewelry. You can also combine it with beads, metal charms, thin ribbons, or other yarns to create mixed-media effects.
How many jewelry pieces can I make with a 50-meter roll?
The amount depends on the size and complexity of your project. As a general guideline, 50 meters can make several bracelets (3-5 depending on circumference), many pairs of earrings (8-12 pairs), or a mix of different accessories. Larger projects like elaborate necklaces may require more than one roll.
Is the yarn strong enough for everyday-wear jewelry?
Yes. Despite its fine thickness, the spiral twist gives TessilGlam above-average mechanical strength. The cotton core provides structural stability, while the polyester wrap helps protect against abrasion. Jewelry retains its integrity with regular wear, as long as you follow the care guidelines.
How does it hold up against color fading?
The cotton/polyester blend provides good color stability over time. Polyester in particular helps preserve brightness and sheen. To keep colors unchanged, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and store your jewelry in a protected place when not in use.
Can I use TessilGlam for projects other than jewelry?
Of course! Beyond jewelry, TessilGlam is excellent for decorative appliqués on clothing, bag inserts, party-favor details, creative packaging, small home décor elements, and macramé projects. Its fine gauge makes it perfect for any project that calls for delicacy and precision.
Does the spiral structure make the yarn stiff?
No—quite the opposite. Despite the compact twist, TessilGlam remains highly pliable. The polyester wrap adds glide and softness, while the cotton core ensures flexibility. The result is a yarn that shapes easily and holds the desired form without feeling stiff or hard to work with.
Do I need special techniques to work with this yarn?
No, you can use all standard crochet techniques. The anti-splitting twist actually makes it easier to work with than many traditional fine yarns. You can crochet single crochet, double crochet, chains, increases, and decreases without any special precautions. The yarn’s smooth glide also helps with more advanced techniques like lace stitches or 3D work.
On Tessiland, can I check the color dye lot number?
Yes! Tessiland is the only e-commerce that shows the dye lot number directly on the product page before purchase. This guarantees full transparency and lets you check availability for the exact color you need. If the lot is sold out, customer support with real people can help you find alternatives.
How should I store unused rolls?
Store TessilGlam rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. You can keep them in the original packaging or in closed containers to protect them from dust and humidity. Avoid very damp environments that could affect the cotton component. Proper storage helps preserve the yarn’s characteristics over time.
