Linen Sewing Thread 18/3 Black
One of our heaviest gauge 100% linen threads, often used for large bindings and also for exposed spine bindings.
Linen is one of the oldest textiles in the world. It is prized for its strength, even when wet. Coats linen uses only the highest quality of flax. Consistency is guaranteed by the blending of batches. One of linen's greatest assets is its low extensibility and thus its ability to hold a tight knot. Linen degrades naturally and thus is an environmentally friendly sewing thread.
- Waxed
- Elasticity is almost nil, it does not stretch
- Approximately 200m.
