Kreinik Cord Cable Japan and Ombre Threads

Kreinik Threads - Kreinik #4 Very Fine Braid

Kreinik Cord, Cable, Japan and Ombre Threads

Kreinik Cord Cable Japan and Ombre Threads add light, texture and visual excitement to any design.

Cord is super thin and used for couching thicker threads. Also for making fine details in a design (like stitched eyelashes). Other ideas: Use it to backstitch in cross stitch, overstitch in needlepoint, combine with any yarn in your crochet and knitting projects. Use it in the needle for machine embroidery. It’s also an elegant metal fibre for card and scrap booking.

Cable gives a very elegant touch to any design. Use Kreinik Cable when you want a twisted metal or rope-style look in your needlepoint, cross stitch, or sampler designs. It’s also good for wrapping and embellishing scrapbook pages and cards. Available on 10 metre (11 yard) spools.

Japan Threads are synthetic, non-tarnishing gimps that give the appearance of stitching with real metals. Use them anywhere, from Asian embroidery to charted needlepoint, painted canvas, samplers, ecclesiastical, and other surface embroidery. Japan Threads are available in Super Fine #1 (thin), Fine #5, and Medium #7 (the thickest).  We have both japan Thread #1 and #5.

Ombre is an 8-ply, softly twisted metallic thread. We currently carry only 2 colours, 1500 Rainbow and 1700 Misty Gold. Email lucy@threadedneedle.com.au if you require other shades. Suitable for cross stitch, needlepoint, and Machine Embroidery. Available on 15 metre (17 yard) spools.
