Product description

These high-quality linen threads from the traditional Czech manufacturer Barkonie are made from 100% linen and stand out for their unique properties. The thread strength of 50/2 (33 tex x 2) is ideal for a wide range of handcrafts.

Advantages of linen threads:

• High strength: Linen fibers are naturally very strong, which ensures durable and resistant seams.
• Low stretch: Thanks to minimal stretch, the seams retain their shape and do not stretch.
• Natural sheen: Linen threads have a subtle, natural sheen that gives products an elegant look.
• Abrasion resistance: Linen fibers are resistant to abrasion, which ensures a long service life of the products.
• Resistance to external influences: Linen threads are more resistant than cotton to heat, light and weather conditions.
• Softer to the touch: These specially treated linen threads are softer and more pleasant to the touch than regular linen threads, making them easier to work with by hand.

Suitable for:

• Hand sewing of heavier materials (from approx. 220 g/m²) – ensures high durability of the stitches.
• Bobbin winding – ideal for precise and detailed lace. Sewing on buttons and hemming buttonholes.
• Sewing heavy clothing and household chores.
• Historical costumes: For the authenticity of historical replicas, we recommend using linen threads, which were commonly used until the 19th century.
