Cotton Sashiko Embroidery Thread Set

This versatile, soft cotton thread is suitable for all your sashiko and sashiko-style embroidery projects. Also wonderful for slow stitching projects and big stitch quilting. 

This set of 5 skeins of cotton sashiko thread includes the following colors:

• 72 (variegated)
• 74 (variegated)
• 93 (short pitch variegated)
• 97 (short pitch variegated)
• 102 (solid 100m)

I recommend using a sashiko needle with this thread. Longer sashiko needles are ideal for stitching straight lines, and shorter sashiko needles are suited well for curved lines. It’s nice to experiment a bit with different brands and lengths of needles to find the one that’s just right for you. You can find a selection of sashiko needles here.

This thread has a soft matte finish and is about as thick as size 5 perle cotton. Thread is machine washable, and is very durable and great for mending denim. Made in Japan.
