ITO Nui – 100% Silk Embroidery Thread, color 1001 Black by ITO Yarn
ITO Nui is a luxurious spun silk thread designed for sewing, quilting, and embroidery. Its soft sheen and slightly pearly texture bring refinement and elegance to every project. Spun silk, with its natural strength and gentle glow, makes ITO Nui an exceptional alternative to polyester, combining durability with a sophisticated finish. Made of two twisted plies with a thickness of 2/60 NM (30 wt), it offers outstanding versatility:
- Use it for hand sewing and embroidery to achieve fine, smooth stitches.
- Perfect for quilting, appliqué, and surface embellishment techniques like top stitching, outlining, and free-motion embroidery.
- Strong enough for seams, while adding a silky and glossy finish.
- Works beautifully for both functional and decorative purposes.
