- Threads for all your punch needle and wool applique needs!
- Please be advised that minimum shipping is $10.00 CAD to a Cdn location or $5.00USD/6.75CAD to the USA. It is more economical to buy more than one spool of thread.
- These rustic threads are hairy hence the name RUSTIC. A large eyed needle is preferable when doing wool applique. The thread will sit on top of your wool fabric because of its structure compared to a smooth perle cotton which melts into your fabric. You should not use a length of more than 18 inches when threading your needle as the stress of repetition will fray the fibers and cause your thread to break.
- Wonderful to use for punch needle but you should unwind and cut some lengths before punching. The fibers on the wooden spool will grab each other and not give you a smooth punching experience like a ball of perle cotton.
- Remember this is a hairy 100% wool thread that has spun fibers that grab each other, so it is not as smooth as cotton and it definitely has some slubs especially the heathered colours versus the solid colours.
- This thread will certainly give you a different look to your pieces and worth trying, to get that 100% wool look you want..
