Dyed Linen Thread

I ordered two colours of dyed linen thread: purple and navy blue (my favourite). They are really well dyed and have a gentle shine to them. Perfect for coptic style journals! Thank you very much :-)

Fabulous colour and lovely to work with

Beautiful colour and lovely to use

This thread is just what I wanted it is strong and the colour is the exact same colour as my book covering. Good quality product. Would definitely buy again.

Not used yet as I ran out of time but I loved the range of colours and the thread is good quality.

I've not ha a chance to use it yet what with Christmas preparations taking
up time.
It's just what I want for a project I have in mind for 2026.
Thank you for your usual prompt service.

Lovely threads and they arrived really quickly.

I have been using these dyed linen threads for years now. They are high quality and easy to work with, and I love the wide range of colours. My orders always arrive quickly and efficiently, too. Great service!

It all arrived within 1-2 days which is insanely quick, and it’s such great quality! Can’t wait to use it.

Beautiful colors, smooth, even thread. Arrived faster than materials ordered in this (USA) country!

This is good thread. I use it for handmade endbands for bookbinding. I've also used it less successfully for stitching the textblock but it's a little slippery.
This is the more expesive reel/netted silk, as opposed to the S303 spun silk. They colours are very vibrant. This silk used to be available in 10m reels but these are being discontinued in favour of these 30m reels (although I'm unsure if all 180 colours are being replicated). I use about 150cm of thread for a pair of endbands so these 30m reels should last a while.

I am very happy with my purchase.

This one was obvious, is just a thread of silk. Well it is simple but it is of excellent quality, fine and with a glossy appearance that just begs for a headband. Very nice indeed.

Receive the silk thread that I will use for my headbands. The color was just as advertised and very rich.

Speedy delivery, very happy with my purchase. I will definitely be using you again soon.

Absolutely beautiful thread will definitely order from again

Genuine Silk Headbanding Thread

I find this headbanding to be just the right thickness for making handsewn headbands. I have tried many others, but this is the most refined while still providing the right amount of bulk. Over the years, I've found I can depend on Hewit to provide the best selection of bookbinding materials, and I've never been disappointed.
