These stunning new colours of sashiko are new releases for 2025. Be among the first to add them to your sashiko thread collection!
Medium mercerised sashiko thread 100m skein, shade #303 'emakimono' or picture scroll (first photo)- dyed with 6 subtle colours! One of four new rainbow colours. Suitable for all your sashiko and boro stitching. May be used double or singly.
The manufacturer says - 'This color is inspired by "emakimono'' (e =picture, + maki = roll, + mono =thing), one of the ancient Japanese paintings that depict scenes and stories in succession on long pieces of paper. When you embroider a pattern like a picture, you can feel the rich colors of paper that has aged over time.'
Please note - this mercerised thread feels slightly smoother and thinner than the non-mercerised 20m sashiko thread. It is less likely to 'shred' or go slightly fluffy when stitching.
Ideal for my printed sashiko panels.
Sashiko needles - use either Olympus Thread Mfg. Co.sashiko needles 2 pack or 4 pack.
Available in many beautiful solid colours, plus 'bokashi' (shading to white) and varigated multicolours.
Made in Japan
