High-quality cotton thread made from premium Egyptian long-staple cotton, strength 30 (20 Tex x3) available in 100 m spools and a wide palette of 53 precisely selected colour shades.
These 100% cotton threads are made from the finest Egyptian long-staple cotton, renowned for its softness and strength. A special finishing process (polishing, smoothing) gives the threads exceptional smoothness and resistance to fraying. Triple twisting ensures maximum strength and prevents unraveling, even with demanding bobbin lace work. Thanks to a minimal number of fluff, the thread guarantees a precise and clean look for your lace, especially in techniques where the lace is presented under glass. The resulting work thus gains a professional appearance and often does not require further stiffening.
Our other range of cotton threads offers a wide variety of finenesses, but not all are ideal for classic bobbin lace. For beginners and teaching children, we recommend the strongest thread with label no. 8 (50 tex x 3), which is easy to handle. Conversely, for detailed and delicate work, thread with label no. 50 (14.5 tex x 3) is suitable. Threads with a different fineness, although we also produce them, are not recommended for general bobbin lace, but may find application in specialized projects.
For perfect shading and maximum creative freedom, we offer thread no. 30 in 100m spools in an amazing palette of 53 carefully selected colour shades. See our COLOUR CHART
