ITOROKU 50m Sashiko Thread (Skein or Card) - 'Kusaki-Zome' Natural Plant-Dyed
Dyed with natural plants and flowers, this thread is produced in very small batches and is extremely gorgeous! Plant dyes are eco-friendly and produce soft, natural tones. The use of seasonal plants gives a connection to Japan's reverence for nature and traditional techniques of the past.
Beautifully dyed, soft sashiko thread from 130 year old Kyoto thread specialists, ITOROKU.
You can choose either a skein (which includes a small, cute card for winding if preferred), or a card, each contains 50m of thread.
The thread is quite fine (20/4), so can be used singly or doubled.
This series of threads is simply stunning, and gives you a chance to own a piece of Japanese sashiko heritage.
