Linen Sewing Thread 18/3 White
Heavier gauge 100% linen white thread, often used for albums and coptic stitching where stronger thread is preferred.
Linen is one of the oldest textiles in the world. It is prized for its strength, even when wet. 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.
- Polished but unwaxed
- Elasticity is almost nil, it does not stretch
- Approximately 50g.
