In our selection, you´ll find many types of threads and yarns. Threads and yarns are materials used for sewing, embroidery, tatting, and other handcrafts.
However, there is a certain difference between them. The terms threads and yarns can be used interchangeably and can mean the same thing.
In our e-shop, Jimot.cz, for simplified searching and sorting, we divide threads and yarns, where yarns are thicker than threads. The difference between threads and yarns lies in their specific use and manufacturing process.
For easier navigation, we divide materials by techniques, although we like to break the rules. Sewing is secured by strong cotton and polyester. Tatting and frivolity require the delicacy of linen and cotton threads for detailed patterns. Crochet and knitting offer warm wool and practical acrylic. For macramé, strong cords are key for stable knots. Each technique has its specifics, but don't be afraid to experiment with your original works – that's how the most original pieces are created!
Threads are fine materials used in sewing, embroidery, tatting, and other needlecrafts. They are made from cotton, linen, silk, or polyester, with each material offering distinct properties – from strength and sheen to thickness (measured in units like tex or NeL). Choosing the right thread for your specific technique (hand or machine sewing, lacemaking, or embroidery) is crucial for a precise and durable outcome. Threads | info.jimot.cz
Discover our extensive range of yarns, available in a vibrant spectrum of colours, textures, and weights, perfect for all your creative endeavours. Yarn is created by spinning fibres and is ideal for knitting, crocheting, and weaving. The choice of material – from natural fibres like cotton, wool, linen, and silk, to synthetics such as acrylic and polyester – influences its softness, strength, and warmth. By selecting the right yarn weight, you can effortlessly craft anything from cosy, warm jumpers and blankets to delicate, lightweight scarves and lace. Yarns | info.jimot.cz
Cotton thread made from high-quality Egyptian long-fiber cotton from a Czech manufacturer. Suitable for both handcrafts and machine sewing. Cotton thread is also suitable for patchwork sewing.
Linen threads made from 100% linen from a Czech manufacturer are characterized by high strength, low stretch, and abrasion resistance. Linen threads are more resistant to the effects of heat, light, and weather than cotton threads. They are used for bobbin lace, sewing on buttons, buttonhole stitching, sewing heavy garments, and various household tasks.
Polyester threads are made from synthetic materials and are suitable for machine sewing.
