  • Waxed polyester construction ensures grip and tension when wrapped around fabric — ideal for sharper resist lines.
  • Waterproof and rot-proof; maintains performance through wet dyeing and wash cycles.
  • Can be split into finer threads for detailed binding or smaller pattern work.

  1. Choose appropriate length (30 m / 120 m / 250 m) depending on project size.
  2. Match colour (natural/white/black) to fabric visibility or invisible effect as needed.
  3. Wrap fabric tightly for crisp resist lines; waxed thread helps maintain tension.
  4. After dyeing and wash-off, rinse thoroughly; the artificial sinew can often be reused if undamaged.
