100% Acrylic Rug Yarn — Exclusive to All Things EFFY (USA)

This is our brand-new 100% Acrylic Rug Yarn, created specifically for rug making and fibre artists. Unlike standard acrylic knitting yarns, this fibre has a stronger internal structure and does not sag when tufted. The strands stay straight and create a firmer, more stable rug surface with excellent durability.

We offer this acrylic rug yarn as an affordable, durable option for rug makers, providing excellent structure and a clean, crisp finish. Knitting yarns are soft, lightweight, and drapey — perfect for garments, but not created for rugs. When used for tufting, they can compact, lose height, and wear down quickly, especially in high-traffic areas.

By contrast, this tightly wound 3-ply acrylic is engineered to stay upright, stable, and resilient — ideal for floor rugs, heavy-use textiles, high-traffic areas, and long-lasting fibre art projects.

🧶 How to Use

• Designed for rug tufting, punch needle, knitting, crochet, weaving, and fibre crafts.
• When tufting, always use 2 strands at a time unless your tufting gun’s yarn channel has been widened.
• You may wind off half a cone to create a cake and use one cone + one cake to feed two strands.
• Feeds smoothly from both recycled plastic cones and paper cones.

🎨 Dye Lot Notice: Please ensure you purchase enough yarn for your project, as we cannot guarantee that additional cones will be available from the same dye lot. Dye lot numbers are printed on the SKU/barcode label of each cone for your reference.

While color differences between dye lots are usually subtle to the eye, they can become more noticeable once tufted, appearing as slight tonal shifts between sections. For this reason, we highly recommend buying enough yarn upfront.

As a general guideline, a 20 × 20 inch (50 × 50 cm) tufted area typically uses approximately 0.55 lb (250 g) of yarn.
