I am a superb all-purpose sewing thread, perfect for machine and hand sewing. At 50/2 weight I am especially suited for light to medium weight woven fabrics and overlocking seams. And I'm great value with almost 5 times the thread of a standard plastic spool. I also come in a heavier 30/2 weight.
My threads are spun from the finest long staple GOTS organic cotton. My ring spun and combed cotton threads are among the softest, strongest and most durable on the market. I am very low lint and my thread is mercerized making me lustrous and silky smooth.
And the cherry on top? My stylish wooden spool made of upcycled vintage wood, making me plastic free and biodegradable. I'm not just a pretty face.

Why I'm Better
Why I'm Better
Organic Cotton is a more sustainable and ethical alternative to conventional cotton. It is grown without pesticides from non-genetically modified seeds, it requires less water and avoids harmful chemicals increasing soil fertility. This not only benefits the land but worker's health improves in turn benefiting the larger community. And organisations like GOTS have taken a holistic approach to improve all stages of producing organic textiles.
