Oriental Linen is an embroidery thread made from 52% silk, 48% linen. The package contains 9.144 m.

## Starting point

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

## Useful for

Use two plies for specialty stitches on 18-count canvas or basketweave on 13-count canvas; use one ply for basketweave on 18-count canvas.

## Care

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