Cotton yarn for wick

[skoot]

Is this yarn suitable for Nova wicks? I use 100% VG.

I would run to the closest Walmart and pick up some of the Peaches and Cream yarn in white.. better than waiting for shipping IMO.

Unless you are set on organic, then that yarn should be fine

Yeah, I want to use un-dyed organic though.

I'm using some drugstore cotton yarn. Tastes cleaner than the unbleached cheesecloth I used to use. Its very good.

I've used (a different) organic yarn. Works well!

I initially thought that said "orgasmic yarn". I was like "Wow, what"s Adeline up to?"

I work in the organic tea/supplements industry, and our company has organic in the name. Yeah, I've heard all the "organic/orgasmic" jokes.

I use unbleached cotton - i still boil it a couple of times - but i reckon nothing wicks better. No dry burning and just keep it wet ofc. I use it in Nova's and RBAs all the time in preference to silica.

This is also what I use. I put the skein inside of a Ziploc bag with a small hole in it to pull the yarn through. The bag keeps the yarn nice and clean. A skein of this stuff will last for years and years.

I've been using this now for just over a year. I don't even boil it. I just clip off what I need and thread it into the coil of my atty's. Nice clean vape and easy to install.
