Fujix - Cotton Thread Hand Dyed with Persimmon - #2 Kakishibu

Fujix makes the most beautiful threads, and here is a real treat. Hand dyed in Kakushibu (persimmon tannin), a traditional Japanese technique that makes rich wood-toned hues, these threads are perfect for working with vintage indigo cottons. They may be used for sashiko, but are slightly thinner than most standard sashiko threads.

Color #2 is a light blonde-brown. The last photo shows #2 second from the bottom.

Each skein is 20 meters long, size #6. Sashiko thread is closer to size #8.
