Color

All photos were taken in natural light. Appearance of color may vary slightly under different light, and on various computer monitors. Color can also vary depending on the thickness of thread and dye lots. If you’d like to see our colors first-hand, email jennifer@mainethread.com to request a complimentary sample card.

Needles

Many crafters use harness needles when sewing with waxed cord. Harness needles have a rounded point and are often used for hand-stitching leather. We recommend the following pairings for needle and thread

The first Maine thread I used

I purchased a spool of this thread from Tandy, because they didn't have tiger thread in the color I wanted. I'm so glad I did because I much prefer this brand. The .02" thread is a little thinner than .6mm. It's tightly braided and doesn't fray. My spool of spruce isn't as heavily waxed, but that's fine--I just run it through a bar of beeswax before I stitch (better too little than too much). The photo doesn't do the color justice; it's a rich, beautifully saturated dark green.
