Naturally Dyed Pearl Cotton Thread – Variegated
$3.50 – $7.75
Naturally dyed perle cotton thread #8 for all your tatreez needs! Before the introduction of synthetic dyes and readymade threads, Palestinian women used to spin and dye their own embroidery thread using the natural materials around them.
Help revive this nearly extinct tradition by incorporating naturally dyed thread into your next tatreez project! Your support allows me to continue experimenting with new dyes and researching the traditional methods and materials once used by Palestinian women.
Perle or pearl cotton is a non-divisible 2-ply 100% cotton embroidery thread. The thread is mercerized, which gives it a characteristic sheen. Variegated colors come in skeins measuring 8, 16, and 18 meters and are priced accordingly.
I personally dye all of the embroidery thread I sell in small batches using natural dyes such as madder root, logwood, turmeric, and more. Please purchase all the thread you need for a project as I cannot guarantee replicating the exact color with a new batch. For large or custom orders, please contact me directly at farah@artcoloredglasses.co.
Description
***Note on botanical dyes: Natural dyes are not the same as synthetic dyes. While I use a mordant as a fixative for most dyes, botanical dyes, by nature, will likely fade or change over time. I use botanical dyes on all threads and all aida cloth colors, with the exception of black and white.
Care Instructions:
I recommend using botanically dyed thread on projects that will not be worn (e.g. framed pieces) if you are concerned about light and wash fastness. If you do need to wash your piece, hand wash in cold water with a small amount of gentle detergent or shampoo. Keep in mind that colors may still bleed, even though I thoroughly rinse the thread after dyeing.
