Is Natural Thread Strong Enough?

Yes! All our cotton and Tencelâ„¢ threads are specifically manufactured for strength and performance. They sew beautifully through the machine and create durable seams designed to withstand everyday washing and wear.

Mercerised vs Unmercerised

Mercerisation is a multi-step process that smooths and strengthens cotton fibres. It also helps the fibres absorb dye more readily, resulting in a smooth thread with a subtle silky lustre and improved resistance to shrinkage.

Unmercerised cotton does not undergo this process. The fibres retain more of their natural character, giving the thread a softer, more rustic appearance and a natural, tactile feel. Unmercerised cotton also has greater absorbency, which can make it particularly well suited to natural dyeing and homewares such as teatowels.

Care Instructions

  • Cold/warm machine wash

Why Choose Natural Threads?

Thread is a vital, but often overlooked part of a sewing project. Choosing natural thread means considering what goes into your sewing right down to the last stitch.

Natural from Fabric to Thread
Natural threads are the perfect complement to cotton, linen, wool and other natural fabrics. They look and feel great together, and avoid introducing a synthetic fibre into an otherwise natural product.

Made to Age with Your Make
Natural fabrics soften, fade and develop character with wear. Natural thread can do the same, allowing the stitching to age alongside the fabric rather than remaining a contrasting synthetic element.

Ready to be Dyed
Natural fibre threads can be dyed alongside your fabric, making them particularly useful for natural dyeing. It's also a practical option when re-dyeing or over-dyeing a garment to extend its life.
