An exciting new FINE sashiko thread, in exactly the same colours as most of the medium plain 10m sashiko thread range - now available as a 20 x 10m miniskein pack. All the colours in one pack, plus a QR code that leads you to the instructions for that fabulous hitomezashi (one stitch sashiko) mini sampler (second photo), stitched on one of our 'just dots' printed hanafukin panels.
This video from Olympus gives a great tip for adding extra marking lines for the sampler designs before you start stitching.
Suitable for all your sashiko stitching, this thread looks great for hitomezashi. Also lovely for big stitch quilting, boro style patchwork, blackwork and anywhere a fine, matte thread is required (it looks slightly shiny in the photos, due to the flash, but it is matte). Maybe used double or single, great where you want a more delicate effect. This listing is for one pack of TWENTY x 10m skeins - one of each colour. Ideal with the Olympus Thread Mfg. Co. printed sashiko panels as an alternative to their medium sashiko thread and perfect for the hitomezashi designs. The fourth photo shows the difference between the medium and fine threads when stitched (the two pink on white samples). The multicoloured sampler shows all the colours.
Recommended sashiko needles - use either the smaller needles from the Olympus Thread Mfg. Co. sashiko needles 4 pack or the Clover sashiko needles 8 pack.
