Sashiko is a beautiful and elegant style of Japanese hand embroidery. Sashiko thread is a single ply strand made of 100% cotton. This sturdy cotton thread is ideal for stitching sashiko samplers, boro, decorative hand quilting, hand embroidery and more.
PRODUCT DETAILS :: Skein Length: 44 yards (40 m) or 109 yards (100m) :: Color: Off-White (#2) :: Made in Japan by Daruma
** Approximately the same thickness as size 8 perle cotton. Daruma Sashiko thread is thinner than Olympus brand Sashiko thread.
After trying lots of stores, with no luck, I was so happy to find Snuggly Monkey on line! The shashiko thread and needles work beautifully and I’m excited to learn this beautiful quilting method…starting with straight lines but will do some thing more adventurous after I get better.

Smooth Finish
I am a big fan of Yokota sashiko thread. It has a very smooth finish which makes it easy to stitch through sampler fabric. The skein separates easily into stitchable lengths, and I use all of the available colors.
