Sashiko Thread can be used for mending, darning, and embroidery. It is not ‘slide-y’, smooth or shiny. It has an open ‘grippier’ construction which makes it able to settle into the fabric. When it is washed a few times it becomes more beautiful, as it becomes almost part of the fabric.
Olympus’s Sashiko Thread is the perfect cotton thread for traditional Sashiko embroidery and has a smooth, matte finish.
