Why we use this thread
We have used many threads in the past and tested most of the threads on the market, unfortunately, most of them were quite weak for bookbinding, and can snap by pulling the thread too tight. It is very important for us to use strong thread, as we restore and bind many valuable books in our bindery.
This thread we have been using for many years, and we can confirm this is one of the strongest threads we ever used so far, it is tested by our book restorers and bookbinders.
Please note the thickness of the thread is only a rough thickness, it is not exact, in order to give you an idea of the thickness.
It will also have some colour variations as it is natural organic linen thread.
Set of 8 needles
Set of 8 needles includes: (70mm straight needle x 2)+(62mm straight needle x2)+(4 curved needles in different sizes: B1, B2, B3 and B4)
TBB needles are specially designed for bookbinding and used in different bookbinding projects.
The 70mm long needle has a large eye, this needle is suitable for thick and thin threads.
The 62mm long needle has a smaller eye, this needle is suitable for thin threads. As sometimes you may only want to make small books, it may require smaller holes, it will be the best option for you. Long and smaller hole compares to the 70mm needle.
Curved needles can be used in different types of bookbinding, example: Coptic binding, it can make your job a lot easier. 4 sizes for you to use in different bookbinding projects.
