Four 18m skeins of kogin thread, in shades reflecting the Ukrainian flag - #306 bright blue, #364 soft mid blue, #306 bright blue, #512 mustard yellow, and #521 yellow. This is a matte, six strand cotton, slightly thicker than standard 6 strand embroidery cottons. The threads separate slightly in the stitch, to give excellent fabric coverage for kogin. Thread may be split and recombined which can make it easier to stitch without twisting. Also ideal for other embroidery where a matte thread is required, using one, two or more of the split strands.
20% of the retail price will be donated to the DEC's appeal for Ukraine*.
Suitable for use for kogin on Olympus Thread Mfg. Co. 20 count linen and 18 count cotton kogin fabrics, and other 18 and 20 count evenweaves.
Kogin needles - use either Olympus Thread Mfg. Co. kogin needles 2 pack or cross stitch needles.

*Purchase any threads or fabrics from my Ukraine fundraiser until further notice and I will donate 20% of the retail price to the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) to help Ukrainian refugees. I have chosen the DEC because the UK government will match the value of our donation, effectively doubling the money given. The DEC is an umbrella group for 15 of the UK’s leading aid charities, including Save the Children, Oxfam, British Red Cross and Action Against Hunger. Its Ukraine humanitarian appeal is raising funds for those fleeing their homes. You can either donate via the DEC website, or the individual member sites. Public donations to the DEC will be matched pound for pound by the UK government up to £25m, so making a donation of £50 means a total donation of £100 will be made on your behalf.
