These gorgeous threads are hand dyed in the UK by Paint Box Threads' Zoe Acketts. Zoe uses her artist's eye to individually mix each dye and create these beautiful palettes of seductive colours, from the vibrant to the muted.
The mercerised cotton can be used for hand or machine embroidery. The hand-dying process adds a subtle variation to the colour which will add that special something to your textile projects.
Each pack contains 6 skeins, each 50 m long.
Thread is a similar thickness to a Perle 12 or one and a half of DMC 6 Stranded. Can be used singly or doubled.
Also available in packs of 10 and taster skeins.

So delighted with my taster pack I've bought some more (Regency colourway). Have been using them to mend a very finely knit merino jumper (patterns from Flora Collingwood-Norris' excellent book) and they pair brilliantly. A pleasure to stitch with.
Lovely threads. Arrived beautifully packed in super fast time.
I always love threads. Can't wait till I buy my next lot.
I LOVE these threads, they're beautiful to look at and to use!
