Its exclusive polyester and polyamide formula ensures an extraordinary workability that wins over both beginners and professional handmade bag makers.

Must-have details for your bags
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: What are you really buying?
Thai Sublime is the result of years of research in Tessiland laboratories aimed at creating the perfect cord dedicated to crochet bags. Let’s take a closer look at the technical features that make this yarn a benchmark for anyone who wants to create professional-quality accessories.
1. Composition and structure of Thai Sublime cord
Thai Sublime is made with a carefully studied blend of polyester and polyamide, two synthetic fibres that complement each other perfectly to deliver excellent performance. Polyester ensures strength, dimensional stability and easy care, while polyamide adds softness, elasticity and a pleasant silky feel to the touch.
The cord features a uniform diameter of approximately 2 millimetres, a size designed to guarantee visual elegance while also ensuring structural strength. This cross-section allows you to create bags with a defined, regular texture, where every stitch is clearly visible and enhanced. The yarn twist is calibrated to offer the right compactness without sacrificing smoothness during work.
With 280 metres per 200 grams, Thai Sublime offers excellent yield, allowing you to complete medium-sized projects with a single cone. This metres-to-grams ratio has been optimised to balance lightness in the finished item with structural solidity, both essential qualities for bags intended for everyday use.
The 100% Made in Italy production in Tessiland laboratories guarantees strict quality controls on every production batch. This artisanal attention results in a yarn of consistent quality, free from defects and perfectly even throughout the entire cone.
2. How to work with Thai Sublime: techniques and recommended hooks
To achieve the best results with Thai Sublime, it is recommended to use crochet hooks from size 3 to size 4. The choice of hook depends on the type of work you want and on the level of firmness you wish to give the finished item.
With a size 3 crochet hook, you get a tighter, denser fabric, ideal for bags that need more structure and rigidity. This size is perfect for projects that will need to support weight or keep a defined shape without sagging. The resulting texture will be denser and yarn consumption slightly higher.
The size 3.5 crochet hook is the optimum size recommended by Tessiland, as it offers the perfect balance between structure and softness. With this size, bags gain the right firmness while maintaining pleasant flexibility. The work feels smooth and comfortable, reducing hand fatigue even during long sessions.
With a size 4 crochet hook, you get a softer, airier fabric, suitable for accessories that do not require too much rigidity or for lighter summer projects. This size also helps save yarn and speeds up the making process.
Thai Sublime works beautifully with all classic crochet techniques: single crochet for compact surfaces, half double crochet for intermediate textures, and double crochet for faster projects. Thanks to its outstanding smoothness, it is also particularly suitable for openwork stitches, shell patterns and circular constructions typical of round bags.
3. Colour palette and colour continuity
One of Thai Sublime’s distinctive features is its exceptionally wide colour palette, designed to meet every creative and stylistic need. The range spans different colour families, allowing endless combinations.
The classic and elegant colours include timeless shades such as burgundy, hazelnut, black, white, chestnut and copper. These tones are perfect for everyday bags and pair easily with any outfit, guaranteeing versatility and refinement.
For those who love vivid and contemporary tones, the collection includes a series of energetic fluorescent colours: fluorescent green, fluorescent yellow, fluorescent orange, fluorescent fuchsia and tiffany. These bright shades are ideal for summer accessories, beach bags or projects intended for a young and dynamic audience.
The delicate pastel range includes sugar paper blue, cloud, wisteria, powder pink and beige, perfect for romantic and feminine creations. These soft shades are wonderful for spring bags and accessories with a vintage or shabby chic mood.
There is also no shortage of sophisticated and contemporary tones such as petrol, denim grey, silver, grey, medium grey, air force blue, bright blue, navy blue and military green. These colours make it possible to create elegant, minimalist bags that are perfect for urban and professional settings.
The most important aspect of the Thai Sublime palette is its season-long colour continuity guarantee. Tessiland® constantly restocks the same tones, allowing you to take on complex commissions with the certainty of always finding the shade you need. This reliability is essential for those who work on demand or want to complete elaborate projects without the risk of colour variations.
4. Projects you can make with Thai Sublime
Thai Sublime was specifically developed for the creation of professional-level crochet bags, but its creative applications go far beyond that. Thanks to its balanced technical features, this cord suits many different types of projects.
Bags of all shapes and sizes are its main use. Whether you are making roomy shoppers, elegant pouches, casual crossbody bags or sophisticated clutches, this yarn always delivers excellent results. Its controlled rigidity makes it possible to create self-supporting structures that hold their shape even when empty, while the softness of the synthetic fibres ensures comfort in use.
Fashion accessories are another ideal area of application: wallets, coin purses, glasses cases, smartphone and tablet covers. The 2 mm diameter makes it possible to create precise details and refined finishes, while the strength of the material guarantees durability even for items subject to everyday wear.
Thai Sublime is also excellent for creating home décor accessories: storage baskets, organisers, matching coasters and decorative plant pot covers. The yarn’s dimensional stability ensures that these items keep their intended shape without deforming.
Particularly interesting are its applications in combination with other materials: wooden, bamboo or resin handles for bags, leather or faux leather inserts, and fabric linings. Thai Sublime blends perfectly with these elements, making it possible to create accessories with a hybrid, contemporary design.
The richness of its colour palette also encourages multicolour and striped projects, where different shades alternate to create geometric patterns or sophisticated gradients. The colour continuity guarantee makes these projects especially reliable to undertake.
5. Why choose Thai Sublime by Tessiland
Thai Sublime is not simply one more cord among the many available on the market: it is the result of dedicated research developed exclusively in Tessiland laboratories. This exclusive production guarantees full control over the quality and performance of the yarn.
The 100% Made in Italy production is a guarantee of manufacturing excellence. Every cone is made according to strict quality standards, with constant checks ensuring diameter uniformity, absence of defects and consistency of colour shades. Choosing Thai Sublime means supporting the Italian textile supply chain and having the certainty of working with a reliable material.
Its exceptional smoothness during work clearly sets Thai Sublime apart from lower-quality cords. The yarn glides easily between the fingers and over the hook, allowing long working sessions without fatigue. This feature is especially appreciated by those who make bags on commission and need to optimise production times.
The seasonal colour continuity guarantee offered by Tessiland eliminates one of the most frustrating problems for professional makers: the risk of no longer finding the colour needed to complete a project. With Thai Sublime, you can plan coordinated collections, accept complex orders and work with peace of mind knowing that your chosen colour will remain available throughout the season.
Thai Sublime offers an excellent quality-price ratio considering its 280 metres per cone yield, Made in Italy quality and professional performance. It is an investment that quickly pays off thanks to the durability of the finished items and the satisfaction of final customers.
Finally, its versatility makes Thai Sublime a fundamental yarn to always keep in stock. Whether you are just starting with crochet bags or are already an established professional, this cord will faithfully support you in every project, guaranteeing results that always meet expectations.
Care: how to preserve your creations over time
Thai Sublime in polyester and polyamide is a durable and easy-care yarn, perfect for bags and accessories intended for everyday use. By following a few simple precautions, you can preserve the beauty and functionality of your creations over time.
- Hand washing: always prefer hand washing in lukewarm water (maximum 30°C) with gentle detergents specifically for synthetic fibres, avoiding vigorous rubbing that could alter the cord structure.
- Machine washing: if necessary, you can machine wash creations made with Thai Sublime using a delicate 30°C cycle, always placing the accessory inside a pillowcase or protective laundry bag to avoid deformation.
- Natural drying: after washing, gently squeeze without twisting and leave to dry flat away from direct heat sources and sunlight, which could fade the more delicate colours.
- No intense spinning: avoid high-speed spinning that could stress the fibres and deform the bag structure; choose a short low-speed spin instead.
- Ironing not recommended: Thai Sublime does not require ironing; if absolutely necessary, use a lukewarm iron with a protective cloth, avoiding direct contact that could damage the synthetic fibres.
- Proper storage: store Thai Sublime bags in dry, ventilated places, preferably stuffed with tissue paper to help maintain their shape, and away from dampness that could encourage mould formation.
- Protection from excessive loads: although resistant, avoid overloading the bags beyond their capacity to prevent permanent deformation of the structure.
- Stain cleaning: treat stains promptly by dabbing with a damp cloth and mild soap, avoiding vigorous rubbing on the affected area.

✨ TESSILAND STUDIOFrequently Asked Questions
How much Thai Sublime do I need to make a bag?
The amount of Thai Sublime required depends on the size and style of the bag you want to make. For a medium daytime bag (about 30x35 cm), you generally need 2-3 cones of 200g. A pouch or clutch may require 1-2 cones, while a large shopper bag may need 4-5 cones. The tutorial videos attached to the product page provide specific guidance on yarn usage for individual projects. We recommend always purchasing one extra cone for safety, especially if you are using openwork stitches, which tend to use more yarn.
Which crochet hook should I use with Thai Sublime to get rigid bags?
To achieve rigid and structured bags with Thai Sublime, the ideal crochet hook is size 3 or 3.5. These sizes create a compact fabric that gives the finished piece the right firmness. The 3.5 hook is the perfect balance between rigidity and ease of working, ensuring bags that hold their shape even when empty. If you want even more firmness, use a size 3 hook and work in single crochet or slip stitch. Avoid hooks larger than size 4 if you want self-supporting structures.
Is Thai Sublime always available in the same colours?
Yes, one of the distinctive advantages of Thai Sublime is its seasonal colour continuity guarantee. Tessiland® constantly restocks the same shades, allowing you to complete complex projects or accept commissions with the certainty of always finding the shade you need. This reliability is essential for those working on demand or wishing to create coordinated collections. In case of specific needs or larger quantities, Tessiland customer service with real people is always available to check availability and assist you with your choices.
Can I machine wash bags made with Thai Sublime?
Yes, bags made with Thai Sublime can be machine washed by following a few precautions. Always use a delicate 30°C cycle and place the bag inside a pillowcase or protective laundry bag to avoid deformation. Use gentle detergents for synthetic fibres and avoid high-speed spinning. Hand washing remains the safest choice to preserve the bag’s shape and beauty over time. After washing, gently reshape the bag and leave it to dry flat away from direct heat sources.
Is Thai Sublime suitable for beginners, or does it require experience?
Thai Sublime is perfect even for those approaching crochet bags for the first time. Its excellent smoothness makes the work fluid and comfortable, reducing the hand fatigue typical of stiffer cords. Its 2 mm diameter makes every stitch clearly visible, making it easier to learn techniques. Start with simple projects like small pouches or baskets, following the tutorial videos attached, which show each step clearly. With Thai Sublime, you can progress quickly and achieve professional-looking results from your very first projects.
What are the differences between Thai Sublime and other bag cords?
Thai Sublime stands out for its 100% Made in Italy exclusive Tessiland production, born from research in our laboratories. Compared to imported Thai cords, it offers better diameter uniformity, superior smoothness and a seasonal colour continuity guarantee. The polyester and polyamide blend is calibrated to balance rigidity and softness, while the 280 metres per 200g yield is optimised for medium to large projects. Strict quality controls ensure the absence of defects and consistency in performance, features not always guaranteed by lower-cost imported products.
Can Thai Sublime also be used for projects other than bags?
Absolutely yes! In addition to bags, Thai Sublime is perfect for many creative projects: fashion accessories such as wallets, pouches and electronic device covers; home décor items such as storage baskets, organisers and decorative plant pot covers; decorative items such as coasters, placemats and centrepieces. Its strength and dimensional stability make it ideal for any piece that requires structure. Its rich colour palette lets you experiment with creative combinations and make striped or multicolour projects with consistently professional results.
How can I combine different Thai Sublime colours in one project?
Thai Sublime’s palette offers endless pairing possibilities. For elegant projects, combine neutral tones such as grey, beige and white with accents of deeper colours like burgundy or petrol. For bright summer creations, try fluorescent combinations such as fuchsia and tiffany or yellow and green. Pastel pairings (powder pink, wisteria, cloud) create delicate and romantic moods. For a contemporary look, try combinations of greys (silver, denim grey, medium grey) with touches of air force blue or bright blue. The colour continuity guarantee allows you to plan complex projects with confidence.
How long does a bag made with Thai Sublime last?
Bags made with Thai Sublime are extremely durable when used and cared for correctly. The polyester and polyamide composition ensures resistance to wear, abrasion and deformation. With proper care (gentle washing, correct drying, protection from excessive loads), a Thai Sublime bag can last for years while maintaining its shape and colour vibrancy. Tessiland’s Made in Italy quality and strict controls ensure that every cone is free from defects that could compromise the durability of the finished item. Many professional makers choose Thai Sublime precisely because it allows them to guarantee long-lasting, reliable accessories to their customers.
Can Thai Sublime be used with techniques other than crochet?
Thai Sublime was specifically developed for crochet work, where it performs at its very best. The cord structure and its 2 mm diameter are optimised for this technique. However, experienced makers have successfully experimented with alternative uses such as loom weaving, macramé for decorative details, or hand braiding for handles and finishes. For knitting needles, Thai Sublime is not ideal, as the cord would be too rigid and not elastic enough. Crochet therefore remains the best technique for bringing out all the qualities of this exceptional yarn.
How can I add linings or reinforcements to Thai Sublime bags?
To make your Thai Sublime bags even more professional, you can add inner linings sewn by hand or by machine. Choose cotton, linen or microfibre fabrics coordinated with the cord colour. The lining should be slightly smaller than the inside of the bag and fixed along the upper edge with hidden stitches. For bags that need to support heavier weights, insert rigid reinforcements in the base using coated cardboard, thin plexiglass or ready-made bases. These elements should be placed between the outer crochet work and the inner lining. Wooden, bamboo or metal chain handles can be integrated during the making process or applied later for a professional finish.
Where can I find patterns and tutorials for working with Thai Sublime?
Tessiland provides detailed video tutorials directly attached to the Thai Sublime product page, showing step by step how to work with it and giving precise guidance on yarn usage. These videos are a valuable tool for both beginners and experienced makers. In addition, the Tessiland creative community regularly shares projects and inspiration on social media. Customer service with real people is always available for personalised advice on stitch choices, working techniques and the amount of yarn needed for specific projects.
