Sheep's Silk is an embroidery thread made from 50% silk, 50% wool. The package contains 22.86 m.

## Starting point

Dye lots vary; obtain enough thread for the whole project.

## Useful for

For wool embroidery and appliqué, basketweave on 18-count canvas, and cross stitch on 18- or 28-count linen.

## Care

The maker does not guarantee washfastness; overly hot water can reactivate dye.
