For threading, simply wet the end of the thread to help it pass through the needle eye effortlessly.

Tested & Trusted by Professional Bookbinders

Having tested various threads over the years, we found that many on the market lack the strength needed for bookbinding, often snapping under tension. As professional bookbinders and restorers, we require a strong and reliable thread to protect and preserve valuable books.

This linen thread has been our go-to choice for years, tested and trusted by our skilled book restorers and bookbinders. It remains one of the strongest threads we have ever used.
